The sources to compile are specific using a fileset, which actually uses pattern matching and scanning to determine the matching files. A file that doesn't exist will therefor not be part of the resulting matches. I don't think we will be changing this. Ian, Scott : what do you think ? Should we throw a build error when the includes name does not contain a wildcard pattern, and does not exist ? > b) using asis causes an error on the first compilation, but the project > builds anyway! The fact that the assembly is generated even though the build fails is actually a MS compiler bug (I've submitted a bug report for this). We could ofcourse implement a workaround for this, by removing the output file if the compiler signals an error. > c) Using the ASIS attribute, subsequent builds will ignore the fact that > the source file is newer, which is clearly a bug for conditional > compilation. I think its pretty clear that ASIS means that we'll just pass this on to the task without performing any operation on it ...
