Update:
I took my own advice and deleted the CreateWithContext call and try/catch block from my local CVS copy
of NAnt. I built NAnt, and the build then worked, and the license files were embedded.
Over the next few days I hope to test this app, but as I said, it is not mine, and I may not be able to test it fully.
I'll try to create a test case I guess... but deleting the CreateWithContext call may have ramifications that I'm
not aware of.
Freaks me out :)

Subject: Infragistics Licensing in builds (apologies in advance)
Nant CVS 0.85 - 1.0 Framework - Win32
How is this issue coming along? I first encountered it last Friday when my new ASP.NET build failed.
I have an idea what the problem is.
Bear with me, (I'm new to this). Implementing licensing involves two steps on the suppliers side...
1. Add a license provider attribute to indicate how to get the license
2. Add a piece of code into the constructor for the control that checks if the license is valid
Well Infragistics took a small liberty, and created
UltraLicenseBaseAttribute
which does NOT extend LicenseProviderAttribute ( so what's it good for? )
If this is how Infragistics are marking their components as licensed, then they could still validate licensing
through change the code in the constructor, but Nant would never find the LicenseProvider correctly.
This would explain:
[license] Is licensed : False
And may also explain the exception deep in LicenseManager.CreateWithContext.
Is it possible to create the license file without the step that includes creating an instance? Otherwise, I'm stuck. I really don't want to change the solution file not to build the license file since I'm not the creator of it and it would break the VS builds.
(Most of) a debug log attached for the error.
