Hi,
 
new solution task, which we work on, will solve all mentioned issues (hopefully). If you want to test the code, there'll be nightlies avaiable just after 0.85 RTM is out.
 
regarding asp.net application: there is new web site project, which is not the project compilable by NAnt. In fact, those project haven't be compiled at all :-). Then there is web application model, which is normal csproj (vbproj) and is completely compatible with NAnt (or msbuild or whatever). You could find more info about it around web.

thanks for the response, I had looked at using msbuild task from nant contrib, msbuild task basically works on project file, there is no solution build concept in msbuild which makes it hard.
The other thing is solution task in nant allows you to specify output directory were the compiled assemblies should be outputted and also configuration (debug/release or what ever), solution tasks also allows you to specify assembly folder, which means referenced assemblies could be in a completely different folder on build server as is the case with us because we compile all assemblies into one folder "bin" and we copy them into application bin directory as last step of the build

msbuild task does not allow you to specify an output directory or config(debug/release), there is also no way to specify reference paths, i guess some of the project file settings could be set through xmlpeek task since the project file is an xml file. 
 
The other issue is how do you automate asp.net application builds using nant, since asp.net apps are not compiled into a dll anymore (dynamic compilation).

Thanks,
<Ram/>
