Build Tools for .NET applications

Im new to .NET (heavy Java background). I was wondering
if there are any command line build tools used
specifically for .NET applications. My application
consists of ASP.NET pages and back-end components.

I dont want to use Visual Studio .NET.

I was looking at NAnt, but Im not sure if that is what
everyone uses.

Yes, NAnt is widely used and is pretty good. Try VisualBuild too.

Thanks,

There's a free tool called BuildIt available in source code form that you
can modify if/as needed to suit your particular needs. I've heard that MSFT
will be coming out with their own command line build program.

You can use note pad for writing code and can be compiled using commandline
tools. csc.exe is the compilor for C# and vbc.exe is for VB.Net. You can
see this tools in the installation folder of dotnet framework in your
machine.

FinalBuilder - It's GUI and command-line, and offers all you could
ever ask for:

Highly recommended - I use it all the time and I'm extremely happy
with it.

In addition to the others comments.

Not sure if you do not want to use VS.NET because: a) its VS.NET b) $$ or c)
its an IDE.

However for free IDEs there are Web Matrix & Sharp Develop.

http://www.asp.net/webmatrix/

http://www.icsharpcode.net/opensource/sd/

I know Sharp Develop has a build facility, while the first is a good IDE for
ASP.NET pages.

Hope this helps
Jay
