Dear mailing list, forgive me. I have bothered you since I have not thoroughly examined the abilities of Nant/NAntContrib before I have posted. Sorry! I'm obviously a newbie. But one question still exists: Is it possible that the checkreferences attribute doesn't work? I have seen into the sou

I have a solution with two different web projects in it. Within IIS, there are two corresponding virtual directories 1) //MyComputer/Project 2) //MyComputer/Project/WebAPI These two directories map to the following physical locations: 1) C:\SourceCode\MyProject\trunk\MyProject.Web 2) C:\SourceCod

Looks like you will have to create a Runtime Callable Wrapper (RCW) for your .NET TaskIf your doing straight COM then you will have to import the metadata (via tlbimp.exe)Take a hard look at this article which details using COM objects in a .NET environment http://samgentile.com/blog/articles

Hi,   I am using CruiseControl.NET 1.0 RC2 with Nant 0.85 RC2 as my CI Server Now one of the C# projects in the solution has a post build event which copies a tlb file to the general output dir. This fails with a source file not found Now I find that the tlb is not generated via a Nant bu

The project I sent you shows how (in VB6) - you must use a Windows API call to either wait until the process has closed or to poll for process close. Similar methods exist in the .Net Framework - so it would be possible to change the exec task to have a "wait for the process to exit" property.

I didn't know vb6 task was asynchronous! Jonathan, is there any chance that you can send me your code - not sure when I'd actually need to use it but when the need arises it would definitely come in handy. Thanks C -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Be

[Nant-users] How to manage asynchronous tasks

2005-10-05 Thread Robert Schneider
Hi to all, If I use the exec task and execute a program that has its own process, NAnt cannot wait for the end of the task of course. NAnt doesn't recognize it. How can I make NAnt waiting for the process? Is this possible anyhow? I would like to start the Visual Basic 6 compiler (vb6.exe) which
