[nant-dev] NAntContrib
I am a bit confused. Is NAntContrib going away? From my understanding it was meant to be a standard place where people could share any tasks that they had written, regardless of weather they were deemed usefull by the NAnt team. If the NAnt team thought a task was usefull enough to a large audience then they could cherry pick from the NAntContrib and include it in a future release. I don't see the need to include ALL tasks into NAnt (but I do think that most of the tasks submitted are generally usefull), and that tasks not included should stay in NAntContrib. brant ... - Original Message - From: Gert Driesen [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Ian MacLean [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, June 29, 2003 6:33 AM Subject: Re: [nant-dev] Namespaces and NAnt.Cnntrib tasks Looks pretty much ok, some minor comments/questions inline ... - Original Message - From: Ian MacLean [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gert Driesen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, June 29, 2003 2:56 PM Subject: [nant-dev] Namespaces and NAnt.Cnntrib tasks Gert Driesen wrote: Will you first make a proposal for incorporating the NAntContrib tasks into NAnt regarding source location, namespace and perhaps class name (don't know if we'll be needing to change class names as well, though). below is my basic proposal for where I see the nantcontrib tasks fitting into nant.

Re: [nant-dev] Contributing
I have found some other bugs/issues as well.
[1] The NeedsCompiling() method doesn't check if the project file has been
modified. This means if you edit the project file it won't get recompiled.
(For example if you change the output path).
[2] It doesn't support/read in the DefineDebug and DefineTrace statements
from .vbproj files. In general the vb support is not fully implemented. I
am considering sub-classing the Project class into VBProject and CSProject
to handle the differences.
[3] I am also considering adding an attribute called referencepath. The
solution task reads this from the HintPath in the proj file however VS.NET
like to maintain this in a .user file.
[4] If your reference is marked as CopyLocal=True (which translates into
NOT having a Private=False in your project file) the solution task is VERY
slow. I haven't been able to trace down exactly what its doing yet.
I will be working on a patch for these soon.

I've cleaned up a variety of little bugs in the solution task as follows:
Leaks temp files under some circumstances (e.g. read-only files cannot be
deleted). Fixed.
Define settings are not read from project file (e.g. TRACE;DEBUG). Fixed.
Resource compiles blow up under some circumstances because of changes to the
ResGen task. Fixed.
I've also added a couple new features because the WebDAV thing was such a
pain. The Solution task now includes the following attributes:
webmap(optional):
A fileset that maps the URL of web projects to the physical path.
solution ...
webmap
map url=http://localhost/a/a.csproj
path=c:\inetpub\wwwroot\a\a.csproj/
map url=http://localhost/b/b.csproj
path=c:\inetpub\wwwroot\b\b.csproj/
/webmap
/solution
Outputdir(optional):
The name of the path where output DLLs and EXEs will be placed. This
overrides settings from the project file.
excludeprojects (fileset) (optional):
Projects that will not be built. I added this because when building from a
solution it does not honor the Build|Configuration Manager settings for the
configuration. I checked the .csproj and .sln files for these settings but
they aren't there. I guess they are buried in the .suo or .user files.
Anyway, my project has a bunch of sample applications that we only want to
build as part of the release and this was a handy way to set it all up.
Per my email exchange with Ian, I have cleaned up my braces and changed tabs
into 4 spaces. Note that the existing files did not follow the naming
conventions so I cleaned up a bit of original code too (put braces on the
same line as the opening keyword, got rid of explicit private declarations
for member variables etc.). I'm pretty sure I caught all the ones I had in
my original patch attempt. I have also eliminated the upcasts of _nanttask
to SolutionTask; instead I pass the parameters of the solution task down the
line as needed. This certainly makes the Solution, Project and related
classes more general and possibly more reusable.
Please notify me if the patch cannot be applied. We are currently having
some trouble with the resource generation and how it works in some cases.
As best we can tell, sometimes the resource names end up with double dots.
Anyway, I want to take a look at this as soon as possible but am hesitant to
do so until I am sure I am adhering to the proper standards so my code
changes can make it into the official source. The bottom line here is I
really don't want to maintain my own custom version of NAnt.
The patch is copied inline below and is also attached as 20030813.txt.

Hi Brant,
The IncludeTask already supports failonerror, as support for failonerror
is
implemented in the Task base class. I did make some minor modifications
just now that will make it more clear as to what is causing the include
task
to fail.
Ian, should we allow a file to be included twice (well actually just once,
but throw no exception when the same file is mapped again) ?
Currently, in LocationMap there's a check that prevents such a scenario :
if (_fileMap.ContainsKey(fileName)) {
throw new
ArgumentException(string.Format(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
XML document '{0}' has already been mapped., fileName));
}

I took a quick peek at the sources for NAnt/NAntContrib and it looks like there's a bit of room left for improvement. But I just wanted to ping the list to make sure that there aren't folks already working on these things and to check to see if I missed something in my quick peek at the sources. One of the major problems in a build is the deployment phase. Here are a few deployment-related tasks that I'm itching to build to solve some of these problems: 1) A server happiness task that lets you snoop around on the server to see what's there. 2) An Enterprise Services task that generates the appropriate COM+ catalog goo. 3) An extension to the AssemblyInfo task to generate all of the appropriate Enterprise Services goo. 4) Some combination of tasks to handle the delay-signing problem (I still have to think this one through). 5) A deployment task that auto-generates passwords for new accounts, and makes them available to other NAnt tasks for the duration of NAnt run - the idea here is to let you create new accounts and set the RunAs attribute in a COM+ application - but I'm sure the utility could be extended to other things that require generated passwords. 6) A SQL task that lets you whack / set ACL's on SQL server objects. 7) A modification of the existing SQL task that lets you run osql using integrated authentication and the specified username / password combination. Can folks suggest additional tasks required for deployment of ASP.NET applications based on their own experiences? I'll add them to my list.

I am pretty sure that the default is for it to look in the GAC and then to

Subject: [nant-dev] NUnit Error With NAnt...
All,
I have the latest snapshot (1/14) of NAnt and I am trying to create a
test
build
script. Apparently the NUnit2 Testing task is looking for my Assembly
in
the
NAnt installation directory. If I copy my Assembly to the C:\NAnt\bin
directory, my test tasks are run. However, I don't belive that this is
the
intended way to run NAnt-NUnit tasks. Is there a way to force the NUnit
task to
look as a specific directory for my assembly? Here are my relevant
build
file
entries. Notice that I am specifying the absolute path for the
assembly.
I've
tried several permutations of the assembly location, but only when I
placed it
in the NAnt/bin directory did I have any success.
Properties:
property name=project.basedir value=C:/Projects/SpikeSolution/
property name=build.dir value=build/
property name=project.ClientExe.name value=SpikeWinClient/
NAnt Task:
nunit2 basedir=${project.basedir}\${build.dir}
test
assemblyname=${project.basedir}\${build.dir}\${project.ClientExe.name}.exe
/
/nunit2
When I execute the script, I get the following Error:

[nant-dev] Solution Task Issues
I am trying to get the solution task to work and found a couple of things
that might make my (and others?) life easier.
[1] When looking for references it uses the HintPath element on the project.
Unfortunately this is not a reliable way to locate references. Visual
Studio actual uses a .user file to store the location of references (ugly I
know). It would be nice if the solution task could accept an element that
would specify the location of shared references (ie:
referencepath=${lib.dir} or something)
[2] The solution task crashes if you don't specify a default framework. It
uses the location of the GAC and if its not set you get a Null Reference
Exception.

Re: [nant-dev] last suggestion - Solution task again
We solved this problem by creating a tool to update the .user files for each developer. It scans the directory tree and then creates a .user file for each .proj file with the correct reference path for that workstation. brant ...

This will likely end up causing trouble down the line. VS.NET is certainly a mess when it comes to hint paths, but I've found that they are generally accurate. I don't even think it uses them half of the time. :) Can you describe your situation with more detail (perhaps some examples) so I can see what is happening?. Sure. This is case, when more developers make some projects and upload them into build server. Than it should compile all that projects from several developers. Of course, every developer have another path in their .csproj files and that do not exists on server. Similar think could happen when you copy project around machines or even move to another disk. I think this is important to solve maybe with help of some attributes. There must be some way from this mess :-) Thanks! Martin Last one - and I'm not sure there. There are problems with references between projects when projects have different output paths. Project references are ok, but external refenreces sometimes brokes. Currently nant compares files as full pathnames using path from HintPath attribute. I suggest to compare filenames as names only without path. Could this be a problem? It works for me, but... Btw: Visual studio is real mess in this. Hope nant could be better! :) I send patch I made, but consider this as suggestion, not real patch --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine.

Re: [nant-dev] Licensing
I think we should ask ourselves what types of uses we would want NAnt to be available to. Here are two scenarios. [1] A commerical company wants to release a custom task and charge money for it. Do we want to allow this? [2] A commerical company wants to distribute a customized version of NAnt as part of its software package (ie: A compiler company, IDE developer) and charge money for the entire package. Do we want to allow this? [3] A company creates a large software package that requires it to be built by the end customer. Are they allowed to distribute NAnt to do this? What if they modified NAnt in some way? brant ... _ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Hi everyone! I joined this list because there are some differences between
Nant and Ant which have been causing me trouble. I wanted to post my
solutions in the hopes that they may be useful. If it's stuff that's
already been thought of, just tell me to shut up :)
The first problem I ran up against was running Ant from Nant. On the
Windows platform, Ant is run through a batch file which does not
communicate the program exit code. So the Nant build always believes that
the Ant build succeeded. To get around this, I actually call the Java
class file like so:
exec
program=${java.home}/bin/java.exe
workingdir=${mbpa.home}
commandline=-classpath ${ant.cp}
org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher build
failonerror=true
/
This is obviously not a problem, however getting the classpath correct is a
pain because you have to add all the jars in the ant/lib directory since
Nant doesn't have any clue what a Java classpath is. To achieve this, I
wrote a little script:
script language=C#
code![CDATA[
public static void ScriptMain( Project project ) {
string ald = project.Properties[ant.home] + /lib;
string jh = project.Properties[java.home];
string cp = jh + /lib/tools.jar;
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(ald);
FileInfo[] files = di.GetFiles(*.jar);
foreach (FileInfo fi in files)
cp += ; + ald + / + fi.Name;
project.Properties[ant.cp] = cp;
}
]]/code
/script

RE: [nant-dev] solution changes
In the 0.84 build there is a bug (keep forgeting to get an official patch)
where the solution task will fail if the output assembly is read-only on the
drive.
Normally you would think this is the desired behaviour but it is different
that what VS.NET does. We actually rely on this bug to make our builds
work.
here is how I patched it (on 0.84) (look for the -)
File: Project.cs
public override bool Compile(string configuration, ArrayList
alCSCArguments, string strLogFile, bool bVerbose, bool bShowCommands) {
bool bSuccess = true;
ConfigurationSettings cs = (ConfigurationSettings)
_htConfigurations[configuration];
if (cs == null) {
Log(Level.Info, LogPrefix + Configuration {0} does not
exist. Skipping., configuration);
return true;
}
Log(Level.Info, LogPrefix + Building {0} [{1}]..., Name,
configuration);
Directory.CreateDirectory(cs.OutputDir);
// perform prebuild actions (for VS.NET 2003)
if (ProjectSettings.RunPostBuildEvent != null) {
bSuccess = PreBuild(cs);
}
// ensure the temp dir exists
Directory.CreateDirectory(TempFiles.BasePath);
string tempResponseFile = Path.Combine(TempFiles.BasePath,
Project.CommandFile);
using (StreamWriter sw = File.CreateText(tempResponseFile)) {
if (CheckUpToDate(cs)) {
Log(Level.Verbose, LogPrefix + Project is
up-to-date.);
if (ProjectSettings.RunPostBuildEvent != null) {
PostBuild(cs, true, false);
}
return true;
}
foreach (string setting in alCSCArguments) {
sw.WriteLine(setting);
}
foreach (string setting in ProjectSettings.Settings) {
sw.WriteLine(setting);
}
foreach (string setting in cs.Settings) {
sw.WriteLine(setting);
}
if (_projectSettings.Type == ProjectType.VBNet) {
sw.WriteLine(_imports);
}
Log(Level.Verbose, LogPrefix + Copying references:);
foreach (Reference reference in _htReferences.Values) {
Log(Level.Verbose, LogPrefix + - +
reference.Name);
if (reference.CopyLocal) {

string program, commandLine;
reference.GetCreationCommand(cs, out program,
out commandLine);
Log(Level.Verbose, LogPrefix + program +

ProcessStartInfo(program, commandLine);
psiRef.UseShellExecute = false;
psiRef.WorkingDirectory = cs.OutputDir;

Process pRef = Process.Start(psiRef);
pRef.WaitForExit();
} catch (Win32Exception ex) {
throw new
BuildException(string.Format(Unable to start process '{0}' with commandline

}
