Bryan, The reason you won't get hits on Draco && webmap is because webmap is a NAnt construct... and not Draco's fault at all. IMNSHO, there is a lot of time and effort being wasted on the <solution/> task by the NAnt team to reinvent the wheel which could be better spent elsewhere. But it's their free time, so who am I to criticize? I'm sure they believe my skydiving time to be wasted. :)
If you ask the NAnt mailing list for help with <solution/>, the first five responses you get will be to download the latest nightly build or get the current version from CVS and try that... so, if you're committed to trying to use <solution/>, you'll probably want to start there. [Let us know how it works out!!] Rumor has it that we *might* see a NAnt 0.85 release this year (the last one was 0.84 in December 2003!). I gave up trying to use the NAnt <solution/> task for anything long ago and use the <csc/> task to compile our all of our binaries, web projects, services, console apps, libraries, whatever. It's fast; it's light and it performs all the functions we really need at the moment, including clear indication of why the build bombed. Trying to automate/wrap DEVENV.EXE directly with the <exec/> task is woefully inadequate because of the STUPID requirements that M$ built into web projects that IIS be available and configured to match the web project just in order to build a simple library. I experimented briefly with simply changing the project types from "Web" to "Local" and using the <exec/> task to call DEVENV.EXE to do the build in a vain effort to make the build environment behave exactly like the development environment... It worked, after a fashion, and produced libraries that will serve ASP.NET pages, if you're interested, I'll share what I learned about transforming web solutions/projects into local solutions/projects (since I never found the format to be documented anywhere by Gates & Sons). I abandoned the vanity for a couple or three reasons: 1. DEVENV.EXE doesn't seem to have a facility for outputting verbose failure data. "Return code 1" isn't very helpful in determining what stupid developer trick was just performed. 2. DEVENV.EXE performs horribly slowly and consumes major quantities of RAM by comparison with CSC.EXE. Because we run the compile twice with every check in (one debug build for NUnit to chew on and one release build to actually deploy to the integration environment), it's critical that the build run as fast as possible (still need to replace that crazy <sql/> task with some faster for deploying sprocs!). 3. Once a project is established (for us), the references don't change often, so it's not that hard to update the .build whenever you make a change to the .SLN. 4. If you're operating a strictly legal (licensewise) shop then you have to buy yet another VS.NET license just for the build server. This wasn't a problem for me (since we've got Universals to spare), but this was one of the many justifications that I've seen on the NAnt lists for reinventing the wheel in the form of the <solution/> task, so just be aware of it. Here's to hoping the MSBuild be a solid replacement for NAnt and be a better build system than the wacky one we have cobbled together right now. If only M$ would hurry the [CENSORED] up deliver! (As if nobody has ever complained that I've been "too long" building software. Heh.) Speaking of MSBuild... Is anybody out there playing with the beta yet and wondering how to integrate it into Draco? > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:draconet-users- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nick Robinson > Sent: Saturday, July 17, 2004 7:00 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [Draconet-users] Vault and Draconet? > > Hi, > > I attempted to implement a webmap sometime ago, but still found I had > problems.
