Hi!
We use ivy (stand-alone) with NAnt to build our solutions.
And now we want to use the benitifts of the Modules part of the Ivy project (which is very neat!).
When looking at the command output. I can see that the Ivy project tries to invoke ant.bat by default.
cmd.exe /C '"ant.bat -file component.build && exit %%ERRORLEVEL%%"'
Therefore i thought that then i might create a ant.bat which contains "nant build", just a passthru / redirect to what we realy want to use.
And that ofcourse works fine.
Thought the issue becomes when we are trying to get the enviroment properties that the freestyle projects sets as invoking time.
The vars that we use is SVN_REVISION AND BUILD_NUMBER.
When using NAnt we can se the following in the console output.
Executing command: hudson.util.ArgumentListBuilder@78dd3dc4
[local] $ cmd.exe /C '"NAnt.exe -buildfile:BuildTool\Component.build milestone release && exit %%ERRORLEVEL%%"'
Either the values are not passed to the ant.bat file or I can't just referrer them as i'v been doing before.
Is there a reason for the values not to follow? How should i solve this instead? Do you have an idea of how this could be solved? I'm open minded!
Thanks alot for the great work!
Looking forward to using the Ivy Project template and just not the plugin.

[JENKINS-6802] Ivy Project template not compatible with other build solutions then ant

created issue -
Should be doable.
I can lookup in Hudson if you have the "nant" plugin installed (I assume you are using this right?) and if it is, then I can provide an option to use Ant or NAnt.
It'll take me a while though... this is along side my day job so I don't get a ton of time to work on it.

Correct! We use the nant plugin.
I'm aware of that it is free time and I'm realy aprichiate the work you have done. Would mean alot to me since i want to use the ivy project template as described above.
Do you think it's alot of work to accomplish it? I actually have no idea of the complexity in creating this hudson.

I already have made a decent start on it and it's going well, but I'm off on vacation for 3 1/2 days now, so it won't be getting done till next week.

Have a great vacation! Hopefully we can keep in touch in the next week too see if you had a chance to work anything on it!
Best regards, Tomas

Got any news to share?
Tomas not too much to report at the moment, having to catch up on work a bunch so haven't had much time to put into this.
I'm almost done abstracting the builder logic with an Ant builder proxy (this is the most complicated part), then I need to write a little NAnt builder proxy (that part should be quick), then I'll need to write the upgrade logic so that when people install the new version it will transparently convert their old config into the new Ant builder config (shouldn't be too much work, but will involve a decent amount of testing time).
The reason it needs to be so complicated is that the plugin still needs to work even if the NAnt plugin isn't installed, yet I need to refer to NAant plugin classes. For that reason I'm having to abstract it all out into isolated classes so that I don't get a ClassNotFoundException when running it without the NAnt plugin.
Hope that all makes sense 
Once I get it a bit closer I can give you a pre-release version to try out while I finish up my full release testing.

Log:
JENKINS-6802 refactored builder logic for Ivy Projects so that the builder is configurable. Added an option to use NAnt as the builder instead of Ant. Added upgrade logic to convert old data to an Ant builder config (the default).

Log:
JENKINS-6802 added implementation of a new method that I must have missed seeing.
Forgot to say that be able to use NAnt with the solution would probebly be the best solution and depending on the work pass the arguments thru an batch script ant.bat would be the second best solution i guess.
Thanks again!
