I just checked in support for using multiple frameworks from NAnt. You can now use multiple frameworks in the same build file and NAnt will run the tools from the appropriate directories. It doesn't support resolving assembly references yet so I guess for compact framework you'll still need to specify full paths for references.
This means that if you set your current framework to "mono" <csc> will use mcs.exe and <resgen> will use <monoresgen>.
Unfortunately monoresgen will fail because it does not handle the /compile flag. I'm going to patch monoresgen to support that.
The syntax for setting the current framework is :
<property name="nant.settings.currentframework" value = "NET-1.0" />
you'll get a build error if you set it to an invalid framework name.
by default it will use the defaultframework attribute from the NAnt.Settings file.
This means you can now do the following:
<property name="nant.settings.currentframework" value = "NET-1.0" />
<csc output="foo.exe" target = "exe">
...
</csc> <property name="nant.settings.currentframework" value = "mono" />
<!-- will now build using mcs.exe from mono -->
<csc output="foo.exe" target = "exe">
...
</csc>Settings are loaded from a NAnt.Settings file located in the same dir as NAnt.exe. Right now there are settings for installed Frameworks and also for global properties.
