This is a really great addition to this thread, thanks Christian, you've really brought this into clear focus for me! When you talk about separate targets in this context, do you put targets into separate build files for each type of build, or do you use branching and manage all the build types in

Hi Kelly because I wanted a seamless build process for developers (they should not be required to learn nant), I've set up a CCNet server which invokes NAnt. The solution task didn't work out well in my context (I met to many cases of failure, mainly because of managed c++ projects ), so I backed

Title: Re: [Nant-users] Developers using NAnt Directly I didn't mean to imply that (our) developers shouldn't or don't build locally.  In our company in fact they do and can catch code errors this way before checking code in.  Whether or not they build locally with Nant is

This is what we do. Developers develop with Visual Studio, and the build automation happens with Nant on the server pulling code from source control. In fact, our developers don't really need to build locally at all (but they do anyway). They can launch a server-side Nant build from a custom web

Well, I think that comes down to a cost/benefit analysis. If the benefits of building with NAnt outweigh the cost of learning, then your developers will likely hop on the bandwagon. I phased it in at my workplace, where we do mostly web apps. Our devs use VS.NET for coding, testing, and debugg
