We are using nant for 2.0 automated builds (about 20 per day, ~200MB sourcecode) regulary. No 3.0 work (yet), but it should be same. msbuild is runned internally from within NAnt to do the actual compile tasks. NAnt is more than the build - check the sources, unit test, zip the artifacts, place them on right shares etc. This could be doable in msbuild as well, but I prefer NAnt, since it was designed for those tasks. MSBuild intentions is to do the build. As I see it, those 2 tools should cooperate together, even that their purposes overlap. Moreover, mine NAnt scripts are quite long and I dont feel the need spending mine time migrating them to any other tool. For the stuff, one miss, its quite easy to download the source, code it yourself and just use. I try to intergrate mine changes back to NAnt, but sometimes, its just mine proprietary solution and have to be remaked to be generally accepted by comunity. I think about opensourceness as main advantage of NAnt. Even that I'm not OSS fanatic or that :-) "CustomProperties" is one of proposals of mine, which was not accepted yet. We'd like to hear from you, if you think its the right approach, or about any better/alternative aproaches you'd come with. Ideas always welcomed! :-)

Thanks for responding. So the "CustomProperties" is still in proposal and
not implemented in the latest NAnt release? I couldn't find mention of it
on http://nant.sourceforge.net <http://nant.sourceforge.net/> Please let
me know if I'm missing something.
BTW, do you still use NAant for .NET 2.0, 3.0 work? Or have you switched to
msbiuld?
Thanks, Ryan

Hi Ryan,
yes - I implemented it locally in my patched version. It never propagate to
main revisions though.
In last versions there is proposal for "CustomProperties", an array of
arbitrary properties, which .net 1.1 builder could use as /nowarn and
/codepage values. I think, this will be quite nice implementation. Other
builders (like msbuild ala net 2.0) could use it the other way, though!

Martin,
I just came across your post about /nowarn /codepage args to csc via nant.
http://www.mail-archive.com/nant-developers@lists.sourceforge.net/msg04885.h
tml
Did you ever implement this nant extension? I am in the same situation and
would like to be able to specify these settings via nant rather than update
several csproj files.
Thanks,
Ryan
