  • Deploying debug assemblies in the GAC

    Don’t ask me why, but at some point I ended up with the necessity of having debug assemblies in the GAC. OK, if you still ask, it is about SharePoint remote debugging. After dragging-and-dropping PDBs and DLLs for 651th time I almost started feeling an imprint in my desk surface, which mouse carved out while travelling back and forth. Sounds like ...

  • WSPBuilder: Generate SharePoint Solution Files

    There's a project on CodePlex called WSPBuilder. It's a console application that gets you from a given folder structure to a SharePoint Solution file. It would be nice if it was a NAnt / MSBuild task, but since it's an exe, calling it from your build script is trivial already. Folder Structure 12 TEMPLATE ...

  • Custom NAnt Task for Removing TFS Bindings

    Before I get started, I want to say thanks to Mike Carbenay and his article on CodeProject about removing source control bindings. His WinForms app gave me the base which was used to develop this custom NAnt task. Atalasoft is a toolkit vendor. So, as you can imagine, we develop loads of demos that we give to our customers showing off how to ...

  • A Visual Studio command prompt environment in NAnt

    Released in March, Atalasoft's toolkit v6.0 had a bug release v6.0a and we've branched to begin building new functionality for our new release while being able to maintain/bugfix v6.0.  In addition, we're internally branched to have one codebase as a sandbox, of sorts.   To a build engineer, this may mean lots of ...

  • Extending NAnt with your own types

    Last time I talked about how to nest existing elements in your custom NAnt tasks.  Now that you've had a good look at that, and Jacob's custom task, there's only one other thing to cover in this subject: a new type.   Types end up looking a lot like a new task, but throwing this all together should be a lot of fun. Last time, I ...

  • Writing NAnt tasks with nested types

    If you follow the Atalasoft Blogs by whatever means, and you're reading this, it's quite possible you've also read Jacob's blog post about extending NAnt.  If you haven't already, go check it out since he's covered a huge amount of ground related to what I'm going to show in this and subsequent posts.  In fact, I'll assume you've ...

  • Writing Custom NAnt Tasks

    Working as a Build Engineer for about 9 months, I've had the opportunity to push NAnt build scripting to the limits. Our DotImage product is made up of both managed and unmanaged code, third party libraries with .NET wrappers, code that sometimes differs from .NET 1.1 to .NET 2.0 (both x86 and x64)  and a slew of other complications. In ...

  • Presenting at the Western Mass.NET Users Group

    I will be doing a presentation on build automation using CruiseControl and NAnt at the Western Mass .NET Users Group meeting on May 6th at 6pm. The presentation will cover the basics of CruiseControl and NAnt as well as developing custom tasks to stretch this already flexible framework even further.
