Hi Beth,
I've looked into this one for you - your syntax is correct, but there is a
bug in the code that loads the configuration L Internally targetList is an
array, and the configuration parser is not detecting this.
For the moment, there is a workaround - use the following configuration:
<nant>
<executable>C:\Temp\NAnt\nant.exe</executable>
<baseDirectory>C:\Temp</baseDirectory>
<nologo>false</nologo>
<buildFile>C:\Temp\test.build</buildFile>
<targetList>
<target>$[buildType|Dev]</target>
</targetList>
<buildTimeoutSeconds>1200</buildTimeoutSeconds>
<dynamicValues>
<directValue>
<default>Dev</default>
<parameter>buildType</parameter>
<property>targetList[0]</property>
</directValue>
</dynamicValues>
</nant>
And I'll see if I can fix the bug.

Subject: [ccnet-user] Dynamic Parameters in 1.5.0
I have been trying to get Dynamic Parameters to work all afternoon, but have
not yet been successful.
I am trying to follow the "Defining a Build Target" example in
http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CCNET/Dynamic+Parameters.
I have a SelectParameter defined in my ccnet.config file as follows:
<project name="IMSRma-Test">
<parameters>
<selectParameter name="buildType">
<description>The type of build to perform</description>
<allowedValues>
<value name="Development">Dev</value>
<value name="Integration">Integration</value>
<value name="Release">Release</value>
</allowedValues>
</selectParameter>
</parameters>
When I force a build on this project in the dashboard, I get a dropdown with
the three choices. That works fine. What I cannot seem to get is passing
the selected buildType to my build file.
Following the parameters definition in the ccnet.config file, I have my
triggers, sourcecontrol block, labeller block, and prebuild block. Finally
I have my nant task as follows:
<tasks>
<nant>
<executable>C:\Program Files\nant\bin\nant.exe</executable>
<baseDirectory>C:/BuildArea/IMSRma-Test</baseDirectory>
<nologo>false</nologo>
<buildFile>C:\Program
Files\CruiseControl.NET\server\config\cc_build_imsrma-test.xml</buildFile>
<targetList>
<target>$[buildType|Dev]</target>
</targetList>
<buildTimeoutSeconds>1200</buildTimeoutSeconds>
</nant>
</tasks>
In my build file (cc_build_imsrma-test.xml), I have defined targets 'Dev',
'Integration', and 'Release'.
When I force a build from the dashboard, it doesn't matter what I select,
the target initiated is always 'Dev'.
I have also tried removing the default 'Dev' target ($[buildType]) - when I
tried this, then no target gets called in my build script (presumably b/c I
don't have a default target defined).
Is there something else I am missing to get this to work?
I am using v1.5.0.6299 of cc.net, and the latest nighly build of NAnt
((Build 0.86.3412.0; nightly; 5/5/2009))
Thanks,
Beth
