Hello I am new to Nant and using the latest build nightly build (0.85). I am trying to build a simple visual C++ application using solution task. It compiles fine with out any problem, but it is not creating the executables.   But if I use IDE or calling through a command line argument such as     <exec program="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" commandline="D:\Test\Solution1\Solution1.sln /rebuild DEBUG /out devenv.log" />   it creates the executables and works fine too.   Can I use the solution task to compile visual C++ projects? If so what I am missing here. Here is my sample build file and the build results.   Thanks in advance Shirome   <?xml version="1.0"?> <project name="Prototype build" default="build" basedir=".">  <property name="nant.settings.currentframework" value="net-1.0"/>    <target name="build" depends="CompileSourceCode">   <echo message="Testing"/>  </target>    <target name="CompileSourceCode">   <echo message="Trying to compile source code."/>       <solution      outputdir="D:\Test\Solution1\TestProject\Debug"      configuration="Debug"      verbose="true"            solutionfile="D:\Test\Solution1\Solution1.sln">        </solution>          <!-- This one works fine and creates an executable as well.      <exec program="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" commandline="D:\Test\Solution1\Solution1.sln /rebuild DEBUG /out devenv.log" />   -->  </target> </project>   D:\source\Nant>nant -l:D:\source\Nant\test.log -buildfile:D:\source\Nant\Compile .build NAnt 0.85 (Build 0.85.1732.0; net-1.0.win32; nightly; 9/28/2004) Copyright (C) 2001-2004 Gerry Shaw http://nant.sourceforge.net   [loadtasks] Failure scanning "C:\Nant\bin\NAnt.Contrib.Tasks.dll" for extensions .
