I'd appreciate any feedback on these proposed changes. Would they be interesting to the NAnt project? Are any other changes to the solution task pending? If the NAnt project is interested and once it's all working, I will submit the patches and you can check the changes out in more detail.
Thanks Conor
Hi Conor.
I'm using the solution task a lot at work with rather large solutions (close to 100 projects).
I've submitted code for pre/post build events some time ago and have been busy lurking since ;)
I think the general idea amongst those that have visiting the code is that it can use an overhaul
(what code can't...). Especially so that it would be possible to add options to the solution task
as you have described. For me it's not usual to need to override anything, but I can see that it
might come in handy at times.
The changes you suggest (mostly refactoring if I understand it correctly) seems like good changes
to me. As would useful options for overriding default solution behavior.
I only have two concerns, one being performance, the second being deviations from VS.NET
default behavior when no options are present. As long as performance is not decreased and the
solution task works as close to VS.NET solution builds there shouldn't be any problems.
From what I know from reading this list there are some planned work. I know Gert started looking
for a small task force to do some refactoring of the solution task. I don't know if that was put on ice
until 0.85 is out (it's really missed!). Also I know Matthew Mastracci (original submitter of solution
task I think) had a few really promising performance enhancements cooking. Last time I checked, performance
had dropped 30% since late March, I'm assuming his changes did not (yet) make it to CVS.
I'd personally would like to see 0.85 out the doors soon :) Even a nightly it is preferred over 0.84,
especially for those using the solution task.
I'm available for all kinds of testing verifications of whatever you might come up with, I also have
a pretty good picture of demands for at least C#. Unfortunately I'm near as skilled in the details
as the real devs around here.
