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) {
if (reference.IsCreated) {
string program, commandLine;
reference.GetCreationCommand(cs, out program,

Log(Level.Verbose, LogPrefix + program +

ProcessStartInfo(program, commandLine);
psiRef.UseShellExecute = false;
psiRef.WorkingDirectory = cs.OutputDir;
try {
Process pRef = Process.Start(psiRef);
pRef.WaitForExit();
} catch (Win32Exception ex) {
throw new
BuildException(string.Format(Unable to start process '{0}' with commandline

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

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.

When compiling with devenv it will overrite the output assembly regardless
of its file attributes (ie: ReadOnly). The solution task does not do this.

System.IO.FileAttributes.Normal );

[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] NUnit Error With NAnt...
You might want to look at this article.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpguide/htm
l/cpconspecifyingassemblyslocation.asp
I am pretty sure that the default is for it to look in the GAC and then to
look in the current directory. You may have to specify your values in a
nant.exe.config file (or possibly the nunit.exe.config file). I haven't
confirmed this yet as I haven't ventured into NUnit/NAnt integration just
yet.

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:
