Title: RE: [Nant-users] How can I list items once and use them in multiple targets? I have blogged on this subject: http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/visualbasic/dotnet/archives/002467.asp I'll summarize for the lists benefit: I created a CSV file to hold a list of projects to build.  I use a t

[Nant-users] devenv and nant yield different build results

Hi folks, My current development project uses a Perl script, which invokes devenv to build solutions in the correct order. I am investigating the use of NAnt as an alternative. However, I cannot generate the same dll with NAnt as with devenv :-( I have tried different ways to generate my build s

RE: [Nant-users] devenv and nant yield different build results

Hi Patrick,   What project types are you using (C#, VB, C++, ...) ? What difference are you noticing ?  What version of NAnt are you using ?   Gert From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: maandag 7 februari 2005 15:28To: nant-user

Re: [Nant-users] devenv and nant yield different build results

That's a tough question. What DEVENV does internally is a bit of a mystery, since Microsoft doesn't provide the source code for it. You can always call DEVENV from within NAnt. There's nothing binding you to using the task or some XSL-T transform, unless your goal is to remove Visual Studio from

RE: [Nant-users] devenv and nant yield different build results

Hi Gert, Thanks for the quick response. I am using C# projects. My version of NAnt is nant-0.85-rc1. An example of a difference: - with devenv I get a dll sized 20 k bytes - with NAnt the 'same' dll is sized only 8 k bytes I did not bother to do any further comparison on that. Kind regards

Could one be doing a debug build and the other a release?   Thanks, Ryan From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 07, 2005 9:58 AM To: nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Gert Driesen Subject: RE: [Nant-users] d

[Nant-users] Suppressing output

Title: Suppressing output Is there a way to suppress the output. I use a lot of calls in my build process, which results in a bloated output file. I've set the verbose attribute to false, but still get a lot of output similar to: [xmlpeek] Peeking at 'D:\perforce\mnau_main\Framework\Frame

[Nant-users] NAnt vs. Batch files

Someone in our group is trying to decide whether it would be worthwhile for him to convert a number of build batch files into NAnt 0.85. He' grumbling about how much NAnt he has to write to dulicate the work now done by the batch files. He's right, of course. Since NAnt is XML based, almost a

Re: [Nant-users] NAnt vs. Batch files

NAnt is open source :-) . We can just add a task which uses the SetEnvironmentVariable() API function. Interoping it in C# is not a big problem. It would take only two lines. Anybody interested to add it into the contrib project? :-) IMHO, It is not unsafe code and hence can be easily incorporate

RE: [Nant-users] NAnt vs. Batch files

Merrill, > * Is there a better way in NAnt to getting the environment variables set > for each ? Aha, finally I get to give back! If he's using 0.85, please see the below, the sum of a discussion Ian MacLean and I had a while ago on this list (BTW, this is still possible in 0.84, just uglier)..

Re: [Nant-users] devenv and nant yield different build results

Here are 2 reasons for me to build independently of VS: (1) I want to get rid of the overhead associated with VS, since the current builds take forever. Basic compiler calls are (said to be) more efficient. (2) I do not want to enforce our customers, who use our software for their development,

RE: [Nant-users] devenv and nant yield different build results

Gert, I did not get permission to send you the actual stuff with which the problem occurs. Therefore, I will try to reproduce the phenomenon with a dummy test project.   For your information, I tried the task too and it yielded the same result. My NAnt dlls are smaller than my devenv dlls. Kin
