CompilerBase Members

CompilerBase overview

Public Static (Shared) Methods

GetResourceCulture Determines the culture associated with a given resource file by scanning the filename for valid culture names.

Protected Static (Shared) Fields

CodebehindExtensions Contains a list of extensions for all file types that should be treated as 'code-behind' when looking for resources. Ultimately this will determine if we use the "namespace+filename" or "namespace+classname" algorithm, since code-behind will use the "namespace+classname" algorithm.
CultureNames Case-insensitive list of valid culture names for this platform.

Public Instance Properties

References Reference metadata from the specified assembly files.

Spawn (inherited from ExternalProgramBase) Gets or sets a value indicating whether the application should be spawned. If you spawn an application, its output will not be logged by NAnt. The default is false.
SupportsDelaySign Indicates whether the compiler for a given target framework supports the "delaysign" option. The default is false.

SuppressWarnings Specifies a list of warnings that you want the compiler to suppress.
Threshold (inherited from Task) Gets or sets the log threshold for this Task. By default the threshold of a task is Debug, causing no messages to be filtered in the task itself.
TimeOut (inherited from ExternalProgramBase) The maximum amount of time the application is allowed to execute, expressed in milliseconds. Defaults to no time-out.
UnlessDefined (inherited from Task) Opposite of IfDefined. If false then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false.

Verbose (inherited from Task) Determines whether the task should report detailed build log messages. The default is false.
WarnAsError Instructs the compiler to treat all warnings as errors. The default is false.
WarningAsError Controls which warnings should be reported as errors.
Win32Icon Icon to associate with the application.
Win32Res Specifies a Win32 resource file (.res).
