I am in need of some help using the <include> tag. Perhaps this is not an issue with the tag, but nonetheless, I am still confused. I will state my case as brief as possible and give more information further down.
I am trying to do the following: FILE1 <include> FILE2, FILE2 <include> FILE3, and FILE3 <include> FILE4. All of these files are in different locations. This works like a champ. The problem is if I try to <include> more than 1 file in a file far down the include chain, the location where the <include> looks changes. For instance, this does NOT seem to work: FILE1 <include> FILE2, FILE2 <include> FILE3, FILE3 <include> FILE4, and FILE3 <include> FILE5 (which in my case is in the same directory as FILE4). In this case, everything is included properly except FILE5 because for some reason, the path of where the include looks is INSTANTLY changed… Is this odd? I do not understand why this occurs… If interested, I give more information below. Thanks, Shane Here is the contents of FILE4: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="Common.targets"> <description>Common targets for projects</description> <!-- ===================================================================== --> <!-- Public Common Targets --> <!-- ===================================================================== --> <target name="noop"> <echo>Executing the noop common target</echo> </target> <target name="build" depends="-build-init, -build-windows, -build-mono"> <echo>Executing the build common target</echo> </target> <target name="clean" depends="-clean-build-windows, -clean-build-mono"> <echo>Executing the clean common target</echo> </target> <!-- ===================================================================== --> <!-- Include the Supporting Targets --> <!-- ===================================================================== --> <property name="supporting.targets.dir" value="./SupportingTargets" readonly="true"/> <echo>BEFORE INCLUDE: nant.project.basedir=${nant.project.basedir}</echo> <echo>BEFORE INCLUDE: nant.project.buildfile=${nant.project.buildfile}</echo> <echo>BEFORE INCLUDE: supporting.targets.dir=${supporting.targets.dir}</echo> <include buildfile="${supporting.targets.dir}/Build.targets"/> <echo>AFTER INCLUDE: nant.project.basedir=${nant.project.basedir}</echo> <echo>AFTER INCLUDE: nant.project.buildfile=${nant.project.buildfile}</echo> <echo>AFTER INCLUDE: supporting.targets.dir=${supporting.targets.dir}</echo> <!-- For some reason this include doesn't look in the same directory as --> <!-- above include... hence, Clean.targets is not found... --> <include verbose="true" buildfile="${supporting.targets.dir}/Clean.targets"/> </project> And here is the output of the file when main build file is FILE1: NAnt version 0.8.3 Copyright (C) 2001-2003 Gerry Shaw http://nant.sourceforge.net settings warning: frameworkinfo netcf-1.0 is invalid and has not been loaded: framework Assembly Dir C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\CompactFrameworkSDK\v1.0.5000\Windows CE does not exist settings warning: frameworkinfo mono-1.0 is invalid and has not been loaded: frameworkDir C:\Program Files\Mono-0.25\bin does not exist settings warning: frameworkinfo sscli-1.0 is invalid and has not been loaded: frameworkDir C:\sscli\build\v1.x86fstchk.rotor does not exist Buildfile: file:///C:/Documents and Settings/staylor/Desktop/Working Copy/Golf/Core/Core.build Base Directory: C:\Documents and Settings\staylor\Desktop\Working Copy\Golf\Core.
