A Couple of NAnt Questions

[hoochiegooch]

Hi, all.

I have a couple of questions about NAnt.

1. Is there a better way to invoke NAnt from
a C# "Master Test Rig" than shelling out?
IOW, how should an ASP.NET web app or Windows
Service kick off a NAnt build session?

2. We have some test tools that can
be accessed via COM (type library/DLL).
Must I write a managed wrapper for this
to have NAnt invoke the functions, or
can NAnt do this directly?

Thanks!

Studying the source code for CruiseControl.NET should give you the answer to
the first question. CruiseControl.NET can run as Windows Service and the
build process can be started using a web page.
ccnet.thoughtworks.com

Sorry, can't help with the second one. My guess is you need to write a
custom NAnt task.
