NAnt Automated building of .net projects made easy...
Though I have been aware of it for quite sometime, I recently read an article in CoDe magazine the provided detailed instructions as to installation and a sample implementation of NAnt. I had wanted to try it out but was a little turned off by the very dry and difficult documentation I had read up till now. Unfortunatly, this is often the case with techie, open source projects.
First I setup my hello world application, next I followed the instructions and within an hour or so I had a batch file and a build.xml file from which i could execute an NAnt build. The instructions in the CoDe article, Even provided instructions to create either a debug or a release build. They did not stop there however, they also included help in creating a deployment .zip file with everything needed.
Very nice...
