RE: [Nant-users] Problem with Move task, overwrite doesn't work?

Brian,

 

That issue was fixed since the 0.84 release. Try using a recent nightly build (http://nant.sourceforge.net/nightly/builds). ....

PS. I should consider putting that line in my signature ;-)

Subject: [Nant-users] Problem with Move task, overwrite doesn't work?

I'm having some trouble using the Move task under 0.84. I specify the move as overwrite="true", but when the file already exists in the destination, I get "Cannot create a file when that file already exists.".  Seems like setting the overwrite propery should have allowed me to overwrite the existing file. Any thoughts?

 

Build file:

<move file="ATBCRDevice/ATBCRDevice.dll" todir="." overwrite="true"/>

 

Verbose output:

ATBCRDevice.dll:

 

     [move] Moving C:\Projects\o_add-ins\Source\ATBCR\ATBCRDevice\ATBCRDevice.dl
l to C:\Projects\o_add-ins\Source\ATBCR\ATBCRDevice.dll.
