I'm trying to automate a build for a C++ project. Previously it was in C++ 6.0, but we're converting to 7.0 shortly. I'm considering writing my Nant script to use the <solution> task to build the 7.0 project. It seems simple enough.
The only question that remains (which is kind of peripheral) is whether SourceSafe is better at dealing with sln files than they were with the old dsp and dsw type files. In other words, if I use multiple checkout on Microsoft's sln and related files, can I expect things to work well in a small (< 5 people) group when we later merge? Or, should I bite the bullet and try to use <cl> and compile each file separately and maintain all the details about the solution in my Nant file. This of course has the downside that everyone has to learn Nant to a greater degree, and that they couldn't continue to debug and work with the sln files in the way that they are accustomed to around here. I'm not sure if I want everyone using Nant all the time for development, or if I just want to use Nant on the build machine. Any ideas or opinions on that? In a related issue, if I use <cl> and have 6.0 and 7.0 installed, which compiler does it call? Thanks!! -Kelly E-Mail messages may contain viruses, worms, or other malicious code.
