Eric,
Good observation which I should have mentioned. The
statement in my example is not really necessary--it just suppresses the
error message generated by Nant. The code behaves correctly without
the statement as was in my original example. That is what
was so confusing from the beginni
That explains a lot. I always thought, "that message is lying" because,
indeed, the property in the file DID get overwritten with my command line
entry. Now that I realize the error is talking about the property statement in
the file, I won't call NAnt a lier anymore. The only reason I put in
Alex,
Yes, now I see what is going on. Modified the script as follows to set
a 'default' value in the event it is not specified on the command line
as such:
This elicits the behavior that I want without the error message.
Thanks,

This also fooled me for a long time.
The message saying "cannot overwrite read-only property" refers to the
line in the NAnt build file trying to assign to a property that has been
assigned on the command-line, not vice versa.

That won't work because a property set on the command line is read-only
by design.
(Overwrite by default is already set to true anyhow.)

Hi Ken-
1) you'll need to set overwrite attribute to true e.g.
2)The user MUST HAVE write privileges to the folder in which he is writing
so user fu can overwrite bar.txt
chown fu bar.txt

After a bit of google, apparently yes, a property set on the command
line is by default set to be a read-only property. (You learn something
new every day eh?)

Interesting. I wonder if passing in a property value from the command
line makes the property ready only. At least that is what appears to be
happening.
So, what do you want to happen here?
If you want it to use the passed in value rather than the value in the
script file? Use:

I am setting a property from
the command line. It seems to work, but I get a message indicating
that I cannot overwrite the property, yet the property does in fact get
set. Can anyone help explain this?
