[nant-dev] Building nant

[Ramon Smits]

Hi there,

I am trying to build nant but failing. The readme says :

    b. Building the Software
    ------------------------

    Build NAnt using Microsoft .NET:

    GNU Make
    --------
        make install MONO= MCS=csc prefix=<installation path>
[DESTDIR=<staging path>]

        eg. make install MONO= MCS=csc prefix="c:\Program Files"

    NMake
    -----
        nmake -f Makefile.nmake install prefix=<installation path>
[DESTDIR=<staging path>]

        eg. nmake -f Makefile.nmake install prefix="c:\Program Files"


I tried the first (gnu make) and it does not really do something. My guess
is that my make.exe is not gnu make or too old. Running "tools\nmake.exe"
results in the message : "The image file nmake.exe is valid, but is for a
machine type other than the current machine.".

How can I build nant and where to get either gnu make or nmake as this is
not mentioned in the readme.

The reason I want to build nant it so upgrade to nunit 2.5.10 as the
current version cannot handle a lot of nice additions like the TestCase
attribute.
