My experiences with .Net

VS.Net build woes

After last weeks euphoria of getting BuildIt working, i noticed some shortcomings in it, basically it uses VS.Net automation to build projects, but it fails to build solutions which i can build from the IDE, so i am back looking for a nice clean build tool for .Net, right now i am  setting up CVS access to NAntContrib and also have Draco.Net downloaded, let's see how it goes.

Hi Sijin,

I blogged a few times about my open source build tool project: Hippo.NET. Maybe you are intrested in it...

Hi Jan,
I had already downloaded and tried Hippo.Net before posting this, forgot to mention it though, but i am thinking if i go in for a NAnt based solution then it's going to be a pain managing all inter project build dependencies. The only problem with BuildIt is that it fails to build sometimes even though it builds fine from the IDE i am going to give automation bases build solutions one more try and see how it goes. If that dosen't work Hippo.Net is going to be my first choice :):)
