It appears that
PreBuild events when run in Nant does not exactly run pre-build. We have
as a pre-build step two commands that do the following:
1) delete a .dll the
project uses as a reference
2) runs the tlbimp
command to recreate the DLL
If the DLL does not
exist (because this never ran before for a user) then the Pre-Build event
actually never runs. Rather it fails because a referenced DLL does not
exist. (Which would have been there if the pre-build event
ran!!!)
Also, if the DLL
exists is also fails because the DLL is locked. I assume this happened
because in the process of checking dependant DLLs Nant has locked the
DLL.
Would this be a hard
bug to get fixed in Nant?
