I suspect that this may be a problem with hardcoded paths in the addin. Since this was a quick throw away app which I later decided to release, there are some hard coded paths in it which point to vs.net 2003 installation. These are c:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe, c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat and c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Tools\vcspawn.exe
if your installation is in a different place or you use winxp and not win2k you will have problems...only way to fix is get the source, change the paths and rebuild... if you want to make it OS and VS.Net independent please let me know... regards, Donal <quote who="Bill Arnette"> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of >> Donal McCarthy >> Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2005 10:41 AM >> To: Arnette, Bill >> Cc: Arnette, Bill; nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net >> Subject: RE: [Nant-users] is there an add-in to run nant from >> within vs.net? >> >> >> Bill, >> The reason NAnt would not be running is that you need to tell >> the AddIn >> where the NAnt executable is.
