You don't need to go as far as NAntContrib - have a look at the 
<servicecontroller> task in NAnt.

Cheers,

Re: [NAnt-users] Visual Build Pro Question







i'd bet there's something in Nantcontrib that'll do the service
start/restart.

i'm about to start using nantContrib to mainpulate our webserver to deploy
builds to our IIS box as a remoting server.

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.

Just my .02, HTH

I am a NANT veteran of about 2 years and recently have
come across Visual Build Pro as a tool option.

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

Thanks,

Rick
