Rosy,
When using .NET 1.1, you specifiy the path to the key using the <vbc> task
since the .NET 1.1 VB compiler does not support this.
You need to ensure that the key is at the expected path relative to the
output directory. In your case, the Constants.snk file must be one level
below ${dist.dir} since the AssemblyKeyFile attribute has the value
"..\..\Constants.snk". Just copy the key file to where the compiler expects
it.
This is not a NAnt limitation. You'll have the same problem in VS 2002/2003
if you change the output directory.
Note: your <delay-sign> task will also not work, since you specify a vb
source file as key file. Not sure what you're trying to do here. Are you
actually delay signing or not ?

Subject: [NAnt-users] strong name generation with nant using VBC task
Hi,
I want to generate strong name using VBC task. If I am using Solution
approach then it is generating the strong name automatically. But when we
are using VBC task then it is giving errors. O am using keyfile approach and
delay sign approach. Both are not working. My project already contains .snk
file and in assemblyinfo.vb file there is a entry for .snk file. But I am
getting the following errors. Please tell how I can sign my assembly with
already present .snk file
Constants.compile:
[echo] Compilation of Constants Source_Code

the /keycontainer option.
