Hi. I don't think it's as bad as you think. The solution task is working pretty good for me. There have been a few problems, but most are resolved in 0.84. I don't know of any work in that code for quite awhile. Most of the bug reports I would think has to do with VS not keeping it's sln/csproj files in a decent state. VS let's users cut n' paste project GUIDs etc. which will lead to corrupted solution files. Also some problems are due to the solution task not being able to natively do everything VS can (vdproj e.g.).
I don't know enough about Whidbey, but I'm certain that Nant would be usless without the solution task today. /Nicke ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kræn Munck" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2004 12:09 PM Subject: [nant-dev] Is the solution task worth the development effort? > > Hi, > > I was wondering: is it just me or does the solution task seem like a > lost cause? > > 1.
