Excellent - thank you! The various workarounds we tried for Visual Studio ended up having their own problems. We've spent entirely too much time trying to get Visual Studio to cooperate, and if you can get me a program that can properly compile a solution file (which Microsoft apparently failed to do), that would be amazingly great...

Mark,
I have a fix for this (and some other regressions in our VC++ support)
locally. It just needs a little more testing.
I'll let you know when there's a nightly build available that contains a fix
for your issue.

Hey, sorry for taking so long in getting back to you. Turns out we found a workaround for the devenv problem so we've been using that for now. In any case, I just downloaded 0.85-rc1 and tried that. It still doesn't work. We ran into a bug in .Net's XML classes ourselves - I'd have to ask my co-worker exactly what the problem was (I'm not an XML guru, and the only reason I bring that up is because something XML related is in the stack trace). Here's what nant is reporting:

Mark,
Can you try to use the latest nightly build and send me the
full error
message that you get ?
I recently rewrote a large part of the <solution> task.

Well, I can't give you the sources, since this isn't a
personal project

- it's for my employer. However, I'll try to re-create the

problem in a
new solution.

Subject: [nant-dev] NAnt Exception
We're trying to use nant to compile a solution from the
command line

(since devenv has serious issues doing that itself).

However, nant

continually crashes when reading the solution file. It

appears nant

doesn't like the mix of managed C++ and C# projects that we have going. I've tried both the current release of nant as well as the lastest nightly build (Nov. 10th). Both get the same exception and pasted below. I've also attached the solution file itself and the nant build file. The "build" target is what causes the crash. The various other targets are working fine and aren't an issue. I added a "devenv" target that just calls devenv to do the build, but as I

mentioned, that's a
less then optimal solution to the problem.  If you could shed
some light
on this problem, we'd be very grateful.  If you need any other
information (such as the project files), let me know.
