Re: [NAnt-users] NAntContrib seems rather dead?

2010-04-21 Thread Christopher Brandt
Is there a better way to bundle or package non-core, user contributions? I understand the need to separately encapsulate the core Nant functionality. But I'm not sure if I understand the need to have a project that tries to build all the extra bits into one thing (NAnt.Contrib.Tasks.dll). Seems lik

Simon, I wouldn't turn to CCNet just for it's built in ability to work with SVN. It's not at all difficult to run commands against SVN from NAnt. As a matter of principle, all of our build files have the ability to update the local copy of the source code they are building. This ensures that I can

Looking at the page for the project on SourceForge, it looks like the last real commit activity was "445 days" ago, although, there seems to be some defect records that conflict with that number. I look into it some more, I want to add some new custom tasks of mine, but, I want to make sure tha

As I was sitting here wondering why the "svn" tasks in nantcontrib seemed so incredibly broken, I realized that the contrib project has not had movement in a long time. I don't even know if the project is directly related to the main NAnt project (ever or anymore ...), I was just curious if tha

CCNet is really designed for unattended builds. If no one is attending the build (sitting at the console of the machine where ccnet is running) then who is going to put in the credentials when Nant prompts for them? BOb From: Simon H [mailto:yo...@live.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 21, 2010 12:3

Why are you running builds against production databases. That seems wrong to me. Your CI builds/test should be done against a test and/or staging database that doesn't have sensitive data in it. In other words your "development environment" should include a development only DBs. BOb From: Si
