<jsc>

Compiles JScript.NET programs.

Parameters

Attribute Type Description Required
autoref bool Automatically references assemblies if they have the same name as an imported namespace or as a type annotation when declaring a variable. The default is false. False
codepage string Specifies the code page to use for all source code files in the compilation. False
nostdlib bool Instructs the compiler not to import standard library, and changes autoref to false. The default is false. False
platform string Specifies which platform version of common language runtime (CLR) can run the output file. False
versionsafe bool Causes the compiler to generate errors for implicit method overrides. The default is false. False
warninglevel string Specifies the warning level for the compiler to display. Valid values are 0-4. The default is 4. False
output file The output file created by the compiler. True
target string Output type. Possible values are exe, winexe, library or module. True
debug bool Generate debug output. The default is false. False
define string Define conditional compilation symbol(s). False
failonerror bool Determines if task failure stops the build, or is just reported. The default is true. False
if bool If true then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true. False
main string Specifies which type contains the Main method that you want to use as the entry point into the program. False
rebuild bool Instructs NAnt to recompile the output file regardless of the file timestamps. False
timeout int The maximum amount of time the application is allowed to execute, expressed in milliseconds. Defaults to no time-out. False
unless bool Opposite of if. If false then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false. False
verbose bool Determines whether the task should report detailed build log messages. The default is false. False
warnaserror bool Instructs the compiler to treat all warnings as errors. The default is false. False
win32icon file Icon to associate with the application. False
win32res file Specifies a Win32 resource file (.res). False

Framework-configurable parameters

Attribute Type Description Required
exename string The name of the executable that should be used to launch the external program. False
managed ManagedExecution Specifies whether the external program should be treated as a managed application, possibly forcing it to be executed under the currently targeted version of the CLR. False
supportsnowarnlist bool Indicates whether the compiler for a given target framework supports a command line option that allows a list of warnings to be suppressed. The default is false. False
supportspackagereferences bool Indicates whether package references are supported by compiler for a given target framework. The default is false. False
supportsplatform bool Specifies whether the compiler for the active target framework supports limiting the platform on which the compiled code can run. The default is false. False
supportswarnaserrorlist bool Indicates whether the compiler for a given target framework supports the "warnaserror" option that takes a list of warnings. The default is false. False
useruntimeengine bool Deprecated. Specifies whether the external program is a managed application which should be executed using a runtime engine, if configured. The default is false. False

Nested Elements:

<lib>

Deprecated. Additional directories to search in for assembly references.

</lib>

<references>

Reference metadata from the specified assembly files.

</references>

<pkg-references>

Specifies list of packages to reference.
<package>

Represents a package.

Parameters

AttributeTypeDescriptionRequired
namestring Name of the package to reference. Multiple package can be specified with a single element as a semi-colon separated list of package names. True
ifbool Indicates if the package should be passed to the task. If true then the package will be passed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true. False
unlessbool Indicates if the package should not be passed to the task. If false then the package will be passed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false. False
</package>

</pkg-references>

<resources>

Resources to embed.

</resources>

<sources>

The set of source files for compilation.

</sources>

<arg>

The command-line arguments for the external program.

Represents a command-line argument.

When passed to an external application, the argument will be quoted when appropriate. This does not apply to the line parameter, which is always passed as is.

Parameters

AttributeTypeDescriptionRequired
dirdirectory The value for a directory-based command-line argument; will be replaced with the absolute path of the directory. False
filefile The name of a file as a single command-line argument; will be replaced with the absolute filename of the file. False
ifbool Indicates if the argument should be passed to the external program. If true then the argument will be passed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true. False
linestring List of command-line arguments; will be passed to the executable as is. False
path<path> The value for a PATH-like command-line argument; you can use : or ; as path separators and NAnt will convert it to the platform's local conventions, while resolving references to environment variables. False
unlessbool Indicates if the argument should not be passed to the external program. If false then the argument will be passed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false. False
valuestring A single command-line argument; can contain space characters. False

Nested Elements:

<path>

Sets a single command-line argument and treats it like a PATH - ensures the right separator for the local platform is used.

</path>
