| Goal: |
| ----- |
| |
| Provide a simple infrastructure to execute .NET applications from |
| within Ant for different VMs so that the user doesn't have to change |
| the build file when she wants to run Mono on Linux and Microsoft's VM |
| on Windows. |
| |
| This sounds far more ambitioned than it actually is. |
| |
| Short term goals are: |
| |
| * A <dotnetexec> task that can be used as |
| |
| <dotnetexec executable="ExampleCsc.exe"/> |
| |
| without testing for the environment (see the dotnet.xml build file |
| for Ant's tests as an example for what may become simpler with |
| this). |
| |
| * A <nant> task. |
| |
| * A <msbuild> task - if only for the fun of having it. |
| |
| * A <wix> task. |
| |
| * A <nunit> task. |
| |
| Those tasks should end up in an antlib of their own in order to be |
| distributable independent of Ant. |
