I'm trying to setup CruiseControl.NET for CI. I am having trouble finding references and examples for setting up just a file system watcher to kick off a build of a solution file. An issue I'm having are the examples I do find use Nant which requires setting up a build script. Playing with Nant shows that you can use msbuild to build sln files which makes me wonder, what is the point of Nant then?
Do I need Nant or can I setup CCNET and have it use msbuild to build a solution file? Is Nant required if I'm going to add in unit testing and other tools like static analysis?
Nant is only required if you want to use Nant. :)
You can use cc.net to build msbuild/solution based builds.
