[Nant-users] Problem with filterchain

[Torben Rohde]

Hi all,
I'm having trouble getting the filterchain
feature to work. A description of the problem can be found at:

http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Programming_Languages/C_Sharp/Q_21405718.html

Short summary: The filterchain tag seems
to be totally ignored. I have also tried upgrading to the newest NAnt version
(NAnt 0.85 (Build 0.85.1932.0; rc3; 16-04-2005)), but it didn't make any
difference.

Any help or hints is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

Vedr.: [Nant-users] FilterChain not working

[Torben Rohde]

Hi Rahul,
I have experienced a similar issue -
which turned out to be because I was using an older NAnt version, filterchain
is a relatively new feature - I think it came with 0.85.
NAnt will not crash in earlier versions,
it just ignores the extra tags.

[Nant-users] FilterChain not working








Hi,

I am trying to copy a file to antoher file. But while
copying i use a filter chain to change some of the
tokens with a value while copying.

The copy is working fine but the filterchain does not
work.

The code i am using is as follows:



                  
                
                 
overwrite="true">
                
                 
               

                
                 
                 
          
                
                 
                 
              
                
                 
               
            
                
                 
       
                
                 
                

        




Any help/pointers?

Re: [NAnt-users] Input prompting ...

[Torben Rohde]

I once did the bat-file-method as Bob suggests, but I also wrapped it in a
VB script (not the ultimate best-practice but it worked :-)

Here's my code for inspiration if you decide to take that route:

.vbs file:

   dim newline : newline = Chr(13) & Chr(10)

   dim strApplicationMetaname
   strApplicationMetaname = ""


   '--- Main program run ---

  strApplicationMetaname = GetApplicationMetanameFromUser

  If strApplicationMetaname = "" Or IsNull(strApplicationMetaname) Then
MsgBox "No application name specified - aborting build " +
   strApplicationMetaname, vbOKOnly + vbExclamation, "No application name
   specified"
  Else
Call CallBuild(strApplicationMetaname)
  End If


   '--- Misc ---

  Function GetApplicationMetanameFromUser()

dim userInput
userInput = InputBox("Enter the name of the application
   instance you wish to build (e.g. MyCompany)" + newline + "(this will
   determine names of services etc. - e.g. if you enter MyCompany, the
   merger will be named MergerMyCompany)", "Enter application metaname")
GetApplicationMetanameFromUser = userInput

  End Function


  Function CallBuild(strApplicationMetanameParm)

dim objWSHShell
Set objWSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
objWSHShell.CurrentDirectory = ".\merger\"
Call objWSHShell.Run("build_and_deploy.bat " +
   strApplicationMetanameParm + " v1_2_3", 1, true)

  End Function

.bat file called by VB script:

   @ECHO OFF
   IF "%1" == "" GOTO NoNameSpecified
   IF "%2" == "" GOTO NoVersionSpecified

   nant /f:builds/merger_build_and_deploy.nant.build -D:MergerName=%1
   -D:MergerVersion=%2

   GOTO EndProgram


   :NoNameSpecified
   ECHO ---
   ECHO This bat file can not be run directly. (name not set)
   ECHO Use the corresponding VBScript "merger_build_and_deploy.vbs"
   instead
   ECHO ---
   GOTO EndProgram

   :NoVersionSpecified
   ECHO ---
   ECHO This bat file can not be run directly. (version not set)
   ECHO Use the corresponding VBScript "merger_build_and_deploy.vbs"
   instead
   ECHO ---
   GOTO EndProgram

   :NoNameSpecified


   :EndProgram
   pause

The only thing I could think would be to exec a bat file that prompts for a
value and writes it to a text file or something. I pretty much think nant
is designed for non-attended use.

Subject: [NAnt-users] Input prompting ...

Nant Users,

Is there a task that can be used to prompt a user for input of a property?
I’d like to design some tasks which will prompt the user for input of a
property if the property was not specified on the command line.  I looked
in both Nant and NantContrib and didn’t see anything.  Am I missing
something?
