Hi Ian, Thank a lot for the prompt reply.
How can I change the settings in my app.exe.config ?. At the moment I have an app.exe.config which is copied as is to the deployment folder by the nant script. And I will have to change this file in the deployment folder manually before running the application. Thanks & Regards, Susantha. -----Original Message----- From: Ian MacLean [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2005 1:13 PM To: Susantha Kumara Cc: nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nant-users] Changing configuration files with nant Susantha Kumara wrote: >Hi all, > >I use nant to build a C# .Net application which is dependent on an >external set of .Net assemblies.

Just define a property : <property name="lib-version" value="0.8.335"/> in some common file that you include in all the build files that need to use those libraries and then reference them like : mylib-${lib-version}.dll Ian ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.
