[NAnt-users] loadnanttasks cannot load x86-Dlls anymore

[Chris <c.z...@pr...>]

Hey,

i've started converting a .Net 3.5 softwareproject to .Net 4.0. In the same
time i replaced nant 0.85 with the new nant 0.92rc1. The project is build
using msbuild with the target-platform 'x86'. We have some nant-tasks which
are also build with this configuration. After upgrading to the new
nant-version these nant-tasks cannot be loaded anymore.

The error message:
/Failure scanning "D:\MyProject\Private.Tools.Nant.dll" for extensions.
    Die Datei oder Assembly "file:///D:\MyProject\Private.Tools.Nant.dll"
oder eine Abhängigkeit davon wurde nicht gefunden. Es wurde versucht, eine
Datei mit einem falschen Format zu laden./

This BadImageFormatExeption indicates, that nant cannot load this x86-dll.
After compiling for the platform "Any CPU" the tasks could be loaded again.
But this made it even worse.
My Nant-Tasks are using some older COM-Dlls which can only be used by
compiling my .Net Libraries for the platform "x86".

Also registrykeys are now really read from HKLM\Software and not
HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node, which is also a Problem to me.

So is it possible to tell nant to run in an 32bit/x86 Mode? That would help
me alot!

Thanks in advance,
Chris

P.S.: Im using Windows 7 Professional 64bit
