Re: [NAnt-users] Why aren't Nant / NantContrib Assemblies signed

2007-04-10 Thread Evans, Jonathan (2)
This is a contentious point. Signing serves several purposes: 1) It implies a degree of security in that in a closed-source model theoretically only the original vendor is able to sign their assemblies; 2) It is part of a type's identifier and so suggests an adherence to a particular

Are you using .NET 2.0? If so, the problem could well be because NDoc doesn't support .NET 2.0. There are some builds around that have been adapted, but the project is now unmaintained and doesn't look as if it is getting any new development.. Have a look at Sandcastle (from Microsoft) for

I used exactly that approach but as our projects grew larger ended up with massive files and awkward configuration. As a result we have developed a series of custom tasks that simplify the configuration and management a lot. We had a set of include files (global, solution, project), a

There are definitely cases where having compiled a couple of base projects the dependency tree then starts separating off into unrelated branches. And having compiled one dll it is immediatly possible to start testing or documenting it whilst the build process moves onto the next dll.
