NAnt assumes that XML files generated by the C#
compiler are always located in the same directory as
the compiled assemblies.

The <ndoc> task should support the <xmldoc> element
(see http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/usersguide.html\) in
order to let NDoc find XML documentation file in any
directory.

    Giuseppe,

    We could indeed add support for explicitly specifying the
    location of the xmldoc file, but in that case we could no
    longer use an (assembly)fileset. I'm not sure it would make
    sense to support pattern matching for the assemblies, while
    still allowing a specific filename to be set for the xml doc file
    (s).

    Gert,

    What you say is correct, but I think flexibility is more
    important than pattern matching. With the current
    implementation, how could you produce localized
    documentation? That's why the Mono project decided to
    implement MonoDoc and not to use NDoc...
