[nant-dev] newbie compiling question

[Jamie Briant]

Got a problem. Trying to build nant-0.85-rc1 using VS7.1 so I can debug it. I loaded the Nant.sln solution, and it was converted to 7.1 format. Then I tried building, and managed to get it to build. However, as soon as I hit run, it crashes. I found out it is because the Nant.Console.exe.config file is not present. Ok, so I put it in the build directory and hit run. It gets deleted! If I mark it read only, the app starts and quits immediately. Its almost like visual studio is deleting it because I don’t get any exceptions thrown anywhere. Ideas anyone?   I’m trying to debug the environment options because it sets environment variable to lower case (which amazingly breaks some tools). A fix for that would be welcome.   Jamie
