Chris, If you want to call devenv from Nant use the exec task - basicaly just like running devenv from the command line. SLingshot creates Nant build files from sln files. Sometimes the resultant build file needs a bit of manual tweaking however. You can also use Gordon's xsl stylesheet to trans

Once you set a property I believe it is scoped to the entire project meaning it is visible everywhere. You can update it later on in your script, no problem.   Note, If you set a property via the commandline inputs those properties are ReadOnly and cannot be changed. You can try to update R

Sorry, maybe I was a bit misleading in my last email. There is a readregistry task in the current builds that can help out. I think there is a VS.Net installdir registry key that you can read. Then you can just copy to that path. That should do it for you, right?   - Original Message -

This is the standard behaviour for the csc compiler and in fact for every .net compiler. There can only be a single static Main method in a given .exe assembly otherwise the runtime will not know which one to execute at startup. Remove or rename one of the Main methods and it will work fine. I
