Matthew, I looked into this again, and I'm pretty sure I'm right :
The HintPath is definitely the "last resort" for VS.NET. So we should undo your change (unless you can send me a repro). The issue you encountered was probably due to the fact that we don't yet use the path list in the ReferencesPath attribute (of the Settings node) in the .user file (the project user options) to locate assemblies. (feel free to add support for this to the solution task :-)) Gert ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthew Mastracci" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gert Driesen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Nant-Developers (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2004 11:35 PM Subject: [nant-dev] Re: Solution task fixes + speedups > Gert Driesen wrote: > > > But you actually have two different "assembly folders" : you have the > > assembly folder that is referenced in your project file using the > > "AssemblyFolderKey" attribute of the <Reference> element, eg. > > ... > > > and you have the rest of the AssemblyFolder registry keys.
