It looks like the same is true for vbc too. Thanks for that Gert. The ..\..\ works in the IDE because the actual build path is <app>\obj\debug and then file gets copied to the \bin folder whereas I'm building straight into the \bin folder with vbc so ..\..\ goes to the wrong place. If I change it to ..\ it works fine.

I had closed the vbc tag in the wrong place with a bit of cut and paste so my default namespace was not getting set therefore the imported namespace didn't exist. <DOH!> Issue 2 is still a problem though if anyone has any thoughts. Cheers, Bill -----Original Message----- From: Bill Martin Sent: 23 March 2004 11:47 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Nant-users] Problem with vbc task Hi Folks, I'm having a couple of problems with the vbc task and wonder if anyone can shed any light on them: 1) In one of the projects, the author has defines a class with static methods on it. This is then imported into a second class so the methods may be used without reference to the class. This compiles fine within Visual Studio, but when I execute the vbc task on the source, I get an error along the lines of "Namespace or Type 'C' cannot be found for Imports A.B.C I an compiling *.vb in the task. I have tried listing the files separately with 'C' at the top of the list ,but still get the error. I would assume that vbc ought to support this syntax as it is legitimate code. Has anyone seen similar issues? Is there a work round or am I doing something wrong? 2) Some of the projects I am building are signed. The .snk file is in the same folder as the source, but in the AssemblyInfo.vb file, the entry for the AssemblyKeyFile attribute is "..\..\MyKeyFile.snk". This causes vbc to fail as it reports it can't find the file, however the project compiles fine within Visual Studio. Now the strange bit - If I change the AssemblyInfo file to have a value of "MyKeyFile.snk" then Nant works fine, but some projects don't build within VS and some do! I definitely only have one copy of each key file and it's definitely in the same folder as the rest of the solution files in both cases. I'm getting really confused now. Any help or pointers gratefully appreciated.
