Yes it is not hard. We use the exec tag to run IISREST to stop and start our QA IIS server while our deploy to qa build is running.

Garibay; nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [NAnt-users] Visual Build Pro Question We use it currently for one of our products and nant for the other. >From my own personal experience, I would have to say that management types I deal with hold VBP in higher regard since it has a nice and shiny interface that nant doesn't. Functionality wise, I would rate the two as pretty much equal in functionality, but I think nant runs faster (no official timings to prove that). VBP does have a nice feature of being able to click on and off certain build tasks in the UI for a given build project, if you do a lot of specialized builds often it's a nice feature to have. One other thing we use it for that I don't think nant directly supports is downing and up'ing services before and after the build. I'm sure you could <exec> the sc command to do the same thing.

Aside from knowing that VBP is a GUI-driven tool, can anyone lend some insight on this product, drawing comparisons where relevant?
