I am trying to get my nant contrib task to load from a relative path.
here's my tools directory
C:\tools\
nantcontrib-0.85-rc3
nant-0.85-rc3
I have tried this,
<loadtasks path="${nant::get-base-directory()}..\..\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin"
/>
and this
<loadtasks>
<fileset>
<include
name="${nant::get-base-directory()}..\..\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin"/>
</fileset>
</loadtasks>
which should both work, but the error I'm getting for both is:
notice \ (leading backslash)
Failure scanning \"c:\Tools\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin\" for extensions.
One or more of the types in the assembly unable to load.
I'm not sure where the leading "\" is coming from, but echo works just fine
<echo
message="${nant::get-base-directory()}..\..\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin"/>
yeilds
[echo] c:\Tools\nant-0.85-rc3\bin\..\..\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin
heck, I can even do this (that took some work, there is no dir.exe I guess)
<exec program="cmd.exe">
<arg line="/c dir
${nant::get-base-directory()}..\..\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin"/>
</exec>
[echo] c:\Tools\nant-0.85-rc3\bin\..\..\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin
[echo] C:\Tools\nantcontrib-0.85-rc3\bin\NAnt.Contrib.Tasks.dll

Bottom line
Is this a bug? Or am I missing something stupid?
Thanks
