Re: using CSC for both 3.5 and 4.0 within the same build process

If you already have a solution and you can build with Visual Studio it is pretty easy. Just do something like:

<msbuild project="${ProjectDir}/Product/${project::get-name()}.sln" verbose="true">
      <property name="Configuration" value="Release" />
      <arg line="/noconsolelogger" />
      <arg line="/logger:nant/ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MSBuild.dll;msbuild-results.xml" />
    </msbuild>

Actually, I am using the msbuild task. Nant will use the correct version of msbuild based on the netframework setting you use. And, msbuild will support the targeting automatically. So, if you are targeting .Net 3.5 with a Visual Studio 2010 project then you will get the right binaries. When I have moved from Visual Studio 2008 projects to 2010 all I have had to do is change:

If you don't have a solution just create one with Visual Studio, add in all the projects with the correct dependency. It should be pretty easy.

This:

<property name="nant.settings.currentframework" value="net-3.5" />

To this:

<property name="nant.settings.currentframework" value="net-4.0" />

Bob,

Thanks for the reply.  I am working with a system that has been in place for a while and many different DLLs are currently being built with CSC.  How different is building with MSBuild as opposed to CSC?

I have found the best solution was to use  msbuild to actually do the compile called from the exec task.

We are starting to have .NET 4.0 Framework Projects that will need to be built.  We currently build by using the CSC tag and not using the project files.

So I will need to be able to build csc with either 4.0 or 3.5 depending on the dll.  we are using NAnt version 0.91

Thanks for any help.  I will post to the list what I finally get to work.
