Automated Slow Cheetah Build methods


I don't want to install Slow Cheetah on all the build servers.

We are using Slow Cheetah for config transformations and it is working perfectly fine. It generates multiple app.config files and we make changes to them as desired.

We have setup several servers. All of them has their code repositories, they pull the code from command line and build the packages accordingly. Those codes has those config files in it. But still when we compile the application from command line, packages are not generated with the transformation if slow cheetah is not installed on them. Otherwise it works fine.

We never know when we setup a new server and a new user, so it is not possible to install Slow cheetah on every one of them

It is possible somehow to use slow cheetah dll in the application and call the transform method manually from it?

Thanks
