Examples

Convert the solution MySolution.sln to the NAnt build file MySolution.build and call the new build file.

<slingshot solution="MySolution.sln" format="nant" output="MySolution.build"> 
    <parameters>
        <option name="build.basedir" value="..\bin"/>
    </parameters> 
</slingshot>
<nant buildfile="MySolution.build"/>

Convert the solution MySolution.sln to the NAnt build file MySolution.build. As the solution contains one or more web projects, one or more maps needs to be specified.

<slingshot solution="MySolution.sln" format="nant" output="MySolution.build">
    <parameters>
        <option name="build.basedir" value="..\bin"/>
    </parameters> 
    <maps>
        <option name="http://localhost" value="C:\Inetpub\wwwroot"/>
    </maps>
</slingshot>
