[nhibernate-issues] [JIRA] Commented: (NH-802) Investigate possible use of MSBuild to build the project

[NHibernate J. <mik...@us...>]

     [ http://jira.nhibernate.org/browse/NH-802?page=comments#action_14416 ]
     
Ayende Rahien commented on NH-802:
----------------------------------

I don't see any value in using msbuild over nant. They are comparable in nearly any way.
Major advantage for MsBuild is that it means automatic sync from VS to the build scripts (which are basically the same).
The problem is that NH's build scripts are not trivial, and it would be a lot of work to port them, and I don't see a lot of benefit as a result.

Mono does have xbuild, which is MsBuild for Linux.
