Darren,
Since you're using Visual Studio 6, you'll probably need to
go the <exec> route (unless there is a legacy C++ task available in
nantcontrib - I haven't looked). I suggest getting the build working from the
command line before trying to automate it using NAnt.
A quick look at the help documentation for VS6 suggests you
should probably be calling msdev, not devenv.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Richard

Subject: [NAnt-users] Compiling VC++ 6 Project
Hi,
Can anyone tell me the easiest way to compile a VC++ 6.0 Project.
I.e. using Visual Studio project file, StructuredPrototype1.dsp
I've tried:
1 - using devenv. But this gives me message dialog stating "Projects generated by a previous version of Visual C++ and cannot be loaded or converted by Visual Studio 6.0", even though the project can be opened and compiled using Visual Studio 6.0.
2- Using either MSBUILD or VCBuild I get "error MSB4025: The project file could not be loaded. Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.".
3 - Compiling using the <cl> task fails because the compile order is not maintained.
thanks
Darren
