False
suffixstring The suffix to append to original files, defaults to .orig if not specified. False
failonerrorbool Determines if task failure stops the build, or is just reported. The default is true. False
ifbool If true then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true. False
timeoutint The maximum amount of time the application is allowed to execute, expressed in milliseconds. Defaults to no time-out. False
unlessbool Opposite of if. If false then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false. False

Framework-configurable parameters

AttributeTypeDescriptionRequired
exenamestring The name of the executable that should be used to launch the external program. False
useruntimeenginebool Specifies whether the external program should be executed using a runtime engine, if configured. The default is false. False

Nested Elements:

<fileset>

Used to select the files to copy.

</fileset>

<arg>

The command-line arguments for the external program.

Represents a command-line argument.

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>
