Re: [NAnt-users] C# sharp scripting and NAnt + CCNet

[Martin G. <mg...@ho...>]

as a followup to ryan and gert on the build for 0.90

i tried downloading Visual Studio 2010 with .Net Framework 4.0 .. after repeated crashes to my system i had to restore from backup

%NANT_HOME%\src\NAnt.DotNet\Tasks>csc csctask.cs
Microsoft (R) Visual C# .NET Compiler version 7.00.9951
for Microsoft (R) .NET Framework version 1.00.3705.6018
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 2001. All rights reserved.

fatal error CS0007: Unexpected common language runtime initialization error --
        'Class not registered '
this is one of those "engine light on" messages from microsoft so pinged the list

ryan suggested that downloading and building mono 2.6.3 will help.. so i downloaded mono-2.6.3 for cygwin and when building see this
%MONO_HOME%\mcs\class\Microsoft.Build.Tasks>make
make all-local
make[1]: Entering directory `%MON_HOME%/mcs/class/Microsoft.Build.Tasks'
MCS     [net_2_0] Microsoft.Build.Tasks.dll
make[1]: *** [../../class/lib/net_2_0/Microsoft.Build.Tasks.dll] Error 1

 Directory of %MONO_HOME%\mcs\class\lib\net_2_0
03/10/2010  06:55 PM           173,056 Microsoft.Build.Tasks.dll

make[1]: Leaving directory `%MONO_HOME%/mcs/class/Microsoft.Build.Tasks'
make: *** [do-all] Error 2

there is no 'do-all' in the %MONO_HOME%/mcs/class/Microsoft.Build.Tasks/Makefile

i was considering moving my J2EE project to DotNet but if DotNet software crashes my system then the move decision has been made

Any advice on making build environments work for mono or nant would be gratefully received

thanks,
Martin Gainty

One of the more recent editions of ccnet allows prompting the
user for parameters when a  build is forced.

http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CCNET/CCNet+1.5+CTP+Release+Notes

 

see the “Dynamic Parameters” section.

How will ccnet accept user input if its running as a service
on an unattended build server?



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?

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. Can anyone help
me out?
