Manish, to complie our *.vdproj we actually use the task to run the devenv. We're also using version 0.84 of NAnt. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vsintro7/html/vxgrfCommandLineSwitches.asp This may not be the preferred method, but it appears to work for us.

You need to use the logger functionality. You can start and stop the logger from inside the NAnt script. So, you start the logger at the start of the script. You then use a build-success and build-fail target to stop the logger and mail its result. Check out NAnt/doc/help/fundamentals/listen
