"How will ccnet accept user input if its running as a service on an unattended build server?" Excuse my fairly limited coding experience, but doesn't CCNet pass control over to NAnt temporarily when it runs the NAnt script? So, if the NAnt script is stored locally and can open cmd.exe and prompt for user input via C# scripting, shouldn't this be ok? Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2010 20:03:58 -0700 From: ron...@ya...

Can you store the username, password, an database in a database and have the nant script look at that if a console isn't available? From: Simon H <yo...@li...> To: nan...@li... Sent: Tue, April 20, 2010 10:32:20 PM Subject: [NAnt-users] C# sharp scripting and NAnt + CCNet Hi guys, I have a C# script within my NAnt build file which allows me to accept user input from the commandline. A truncutated excerpt of the NAnt build file is: ... <property name="username" value="" /> <property name="password" value="" /> <property name="database" value="" /> ... <target name="menu"> <script language="C#" mainclass="GetInput"> <code> <![CDATA[ class GetInput { public static void ScriptMain(Project project) { Console.Clear(); Console.WriteLine("==================================================================="); Console.WriteLine("Welcome to the Compile and Deploy Oracle Forms and Reports Facility"); Console.WriteLine("==================================================================="); Console.Write("Please enter username: "); project.Properties["username"] = Console.ReadLine(); Console.WriteLine(); Console.Write("Please enter password: "); project.Properties["password"] = Console.ReadLine(); Console.WriteLine(); Console.Write("Please enter database: "); project.Properties["database"] = Console.ReadLine(); Console.WriteLine(); ... ]]> </code> </script> </target> When I run this build file from the commandline, it works perfectly. However, when I call this build file from CCNet it does not work. The only reason for this I can think of is that when CCNet calls the NAnt script, it is not sure how to pass the C# script calls to the System.Console class to the commandline. I'm not sure how to do this though. I've also been playing around with the idea of the C# script opening a new instance of cmd.exe and then trying to execute the remainder of the script. From searches on Google, I found the following solution that works as a C# class: using System; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Text; using System.IO; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; using Microsoft.Win32.SafeHandles; class Program { [DllImport("kernel32.dll", EntryPoint = "GetStdHandle", SetLastError = true, CharSet = CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)] private static extern IntPtr GetStdHandle(int nStdHandle); [DllImport("kernel32.dll", EntryPoint = "AllocConsole", SetLastError = true, CharSet = CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)] private static extern int AllocConsole(); private const int STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE = -11; private const int MY_CODE_PAGE = 437; private static string deployment = "\\\\vm-osb-oasd\\sohaan"; static void Main(string[] args) { AllocConsole(); IntPtr stdHandle = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE); SafeFileHandle safeFileHandle = new SafeFileHandle(stdHandle, true); FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(safeFileHandle, FileAccess.Write); Encoding encoding = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(MY_CODE_PAGE); StreamWriter standardOutput = new StreamWriter(fileStream, encoding); standardOutput.AutoFlush = true; Console.SetOut(standardOutput); Console.Clear(); Console.WriteLine("==================================================================="); Console.WriteLine("Welcome to the Compile and Deploy Oracle Forms and Reports Facility"); Console.WriteLine("==================================================================="); Console.Write("Please enter username: "); string username = Console.ReadLine(); .... } } This works perfectly in a C# environment. However, I do not know how to embed it within a NAnt script correctly...From what I know about NAnt, I may need to create an extension, but am uncertain of how to go about this.
