[Mono-list] monoresgen and resgen compatibility

2003-03-02 Thread Ian MacLean
Hi, I'm wondering if there is the intention to have monoresgen commandline compatible with resgen.exe from the .Net SDK ? Right now all its missing is the /compile flag that enables it to take multiple input files. I'm working on getting NAnt be able to execute builds using mono tools ie so that

Rafael, the NAnt makefile has been re-organised since 0.8.3. I think you'll find that the current cvs builds much more smoothly. There is no mininant anymore - just run make in the nant basedir. You'll probably still need to tweak the config file as by default it expects mono to reside in /usr/
