How to install NAntContrib after download it?

Well, it’s so funny that there’s no clue to install it in the package downloaded from their homepage. As one guy felt angry with it here AngryPets.com :: Blog, I felt angry too ^_^!

So, very simple, the solution is just “Just copy everything in the NantContrib\bin directory into Nant\bin“.

Another way is to add some below script to the beginning of your NAnt script, says that you installed NAntContrib to “C:/Program Files/NAntContrib“.

<loadtasks>
	<fileset>
		<include name="C:/Program Files/NAntContrib/bin/**/*.dll" />
	</fileset>
</loadtasks>

D… it NAntContrib .

A free SVN-supported project hosting

If you ever have a project or simply just a folder that you wanna share with your partners so as any of you can get/update the files and sync them with other members in the group? Normally we need to set up an SVN server for that.

Well, lately, one of my colleages tell me that we can use Google’s Project Hosting service called Project Hosting on Google Code at http://code.google.com/hosting!

Now I can have an svn-synced folder whenever I want for free! It’s just so cool! ^_^
