For multiple sources (i.e. projects), simply duplicate the .. section for each project. References are added in the same section (within ...). As for VB-specific, I can't help you out there -- I don't use VB!

Hi Brian!

Thanks for the feedback. Seems like you pretty much confirm the behavior I experience aswell. Some System.XYZ assemblies must be referenced explicitly as they will not be resolved automatically by calling GetDepndentAssemblies().

Thanks,
Julian.

You should check your project references — particularly any System.* references that are out of the ordinary — and make sure each is listed in your NAnt build script. Note how above, different target projects reference different sets of System DLLs. You may need one that isn’t being referenced.

Hope that helps!

Hi!

It’s a compile output error given by the csc command executed through the csc tag. I was able to resolve the problem by explicitly defining all needed assemblies in the references (all the assemblies that devenv pulled into the bin/debug folder). This is more assemblies then referenced in VS.

Thanks,
Julian.

Where is the CS0234 message generated – from within NAnt?

Hi!

Nice demonstration of NAnt. I have been trying to set up NAnt for 5 hours now. I’m able to compile 3 of 45 projects and run 1 unit test! The fourth project I’m stuck on is the domain model and I keep hitting the CS0234 error message. The strange thing is that the compile process is successful in VS. Did you do any tricks to avoid this silly error message?

The MSDN docs isn’t very helpful either. I cannot really understand what they are trying to explain in this sample:

I hope you can enlighten me,
thanks,
Julian.

This is a wonderful explaination for any starter like me. Thanks for this post and I really look forward to learn more on NAnt.
