[NAnt-users] Why NAnt over VS Studio builds?

2008-09-06 Thread Tero Vaananen
As a NAnt noob I have some fundamental questions. The VS Studio build system
has worked fine for me for years, even with solutions that have a few dozen
sub projects. Is there something that NAnt can do for me that would make my
life considerably easier? What convinced you to start using it?

Thanks.

For me, it's the ability to have cross-platform development with a  
common build framework.

You can get the same with VS Studio and makefiles or batch files, but  
I prefer the simplicity of NAnt build scripts.

You can still have VS Studio call into NAnt if you want to keep the  
workflow you have.

[NAnt-users] Problems with .ico files referenced in a .resx

2008-09-06 Thread brat000012...@yahoo.com
I could not figure out from the documentation how the heck am I supposed to let 
the nant know where the external .ico files are located when compiling a .resx 
file... I have a .resx file containing the following definition:

 
DataGridTextAreaButton.ico;System.Drawing.Icon, System.Drawing, 
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d
50a3a

This is supposed to load the specified .ico file into the resulting .resources, 
but nant keeps failing with an error "[resgen] Inner exception: Could not find 
file "/tmp/tmp5639f2ee.tmp/DataGridTextAreaButton.ico".  Line 123, position 
5.". My  definition is:

 



Nant finds the .resx files and copies them to a temp directory but not the .ico 
files.
