jean-michel,
in v
0.8.3 of nant, has an output= attribute where you name the
output file of interest.
however, in v 0.8.3, that feature doesn't work well (you have to also say
append="true" or you only get the last line of the output. but you still don't
get line breaks be

the solution task expects you to name the target configuration for your
compilation (eg. debug or release). i don't know whether there's a

i do the same all the time, except i prefix the property name w/ the

there isn't an alternative in nant at present.

the original question wasn't whether target/task are conditional (they
are). it was whether there's a way to test the availability of tasks.
there is. it's documented as:
built-in properties:
nant.task.* Each task available to nant has a "true" value, e.g.,

it's not a property file per se, but a project file that defines
properties, like so:
c:\_myprops.build
--8<--
--8<--
then you just include this file like so (note the task can't
be inside a target ):

Thanks for your reply. I understand the mechanics "integrating" my

me it's wrong-headed to deprecate a means of extensibility. It means
that anyone who upgrades NAnt HAS TO do something(s) extra in order to
re-drop their

categorizing it as a "contrib" when it clearly is the core of core.
