Re: CC task, VisualStudio Env Vars

Listing them somewhere shouldn't be too terrible and if running the 
batch file out of the Ant script doesn't work, it's probably your best bet.

In Anthill Pro, I'd tell you to list them as environment variables on 
your ant or nant config. Since 1.8 (I believe) the command execution 
library OS uses makes setting environment variables pretty easy. 
Extending OS to take a list of environment variables that is 
customizable per build - or perhaps global - would be quite doable for 
someone who wanted to do it.
