Re: [NAnt-users] Solution task and non dot.net code

2007-04-04 Thread Robert Hanson
I'll second that. We have a project that uses idl files (corba specification). The task always tried to compile these with midl.exe; but we really wanted to compile them with the omniOrb idl compiler; and I couldn't figure out how to turn off the midl. On top of that, there were strange "non-co

idlFile and cppTarget are nant properties.     It suggests using the following:    [if] C:\projects\Mater\root\build projects\nant.build(253,4): Attribute 'uptodatefile' for is deprecated.  Use instead.   Can I just use   -

[NAnt-users] Change the appearance of the "Build failed" error msgs

When my build fails, I receive an email that is a horrible red color that is really hard to read.   Can I change this to something else and/or putz with the font to get it more readable?   Thanks. Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security? Get stuff

[NAnt-users] Showing output of Nat run in email produced by cruisecontrol.net

2006-06-20 Thread Robert Hanson
I have a cruisecontrol.net setup to build my project.  The actual build happens with nant.  The email I get after a build only shows the error that terminated the build (if any) plus warnings (if any).  How can I get the actual nant output into that email?

[NAnt-users] midl and idl files

2006-06-13 Thread Robert Hanson
When building a solution, nant uses the midl compiler to process .idl files, even if the solution file (actually the .vcproj file)  has a custom build step for the .idl file.  Is there a way to force nant to use some other program (other than midl) to process the .idl files?   What I’d li

Where in the docs can I find a list of Nant’s built-in properties?  I see references to things like ${build.dir} but I can’t find a list of these.  

RE: [NAnt-users] compiling OmniOrb idl files - options?

  rascalInterface.idl has a custom build step that runs omniIdl.exe (which produces rascalInterface.cpp and rascalInterface.h, which are later compiled along with the rest of the cpp files).     From: Melissa Kacher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 19, 2006 11:29 AM To: Robert Hanson

[NAnt-users] compiling OmniOrb idl files - options?

2006-05-19 Thread Robert Hanson
I have a number of VS.NET projects that we’re porting from VC 6.0  (all in C++).  The projects use a custom build step to compile an idl file using OmniOrb.   As I understand it, the NANT solution task does not understand or execute custom build steps, which is what we use to compile the
