I jsut re-checked, and I am unable to find any type of bug.

Basically, when I plug the content of the include file into the main build file, it does work.

If I move it out into it's own separate file (and include it), I get errors.

This is the error:

C:\Work\ThonaConsulting\EntityBroker\02.1>nant

BUILD FAILED

Could not include build file 'N:\.dev\deployed\.buildscripts\default.build'.
There are multiple root elements. Line 3, position 3.

Total time: 0 seconds.

This is the main build file started:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</project>

And this is the start and end of the included file:

start:

end:

<target name="publish" depends="deploy">
  <if test="${file::exists(nant.project.basedir+'\publish.build')}">
   <echo message="External build file found, executing" />
   <nant buildfile="${nant.project.basedir+'\publish.build'}" />
  </if>
</target>

(naturally the start and end parts are not working on their own).

The interesting thing is that if I basically copy/paste the include file into the main build file, replacing the <include element, then suddenly all things are working.

Looks like it might be a bug in your included build file.

This is exactly what I do, except I have the project's build files setting a lot of properties, and the master build file makes all its decisions based on those properties.

I'm not sure how overriding targets would even work.

Thanks,
Ryan

Hello,

I am trying to get into orgainizing my nant files more.

I have a central nant file that all our projects should share.

Is it viable to use an empty shell file (possibly with do-nothing targets that the projects fill out) and have it include the core targets?

How is the syntax?

I just took the whole XML content to the external file, and did remove project tag.

The new build file tries to include this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<project default="build" >

<include buildfile="n:\.dev\deployed\.buildscripts\default.build" />

</project>

Sadly I get an exception?

The documentation for the Nant <include> task is - well - not really helpfull.
