Nant wont recognize namespace.Properties - build

I'm trying to use nant to build a solution for a c# project however I am having an issue specifying resources in my build file. I get the error code:
CS0234: The type or namespace name 'Properties' does not exists in the namespace 'Darkside'. How can I modify my build file to remove the error?
Here is one of the snippets of code in my source files that is causing the issue:
Image enemyImage = DarkSide.Properties.Resources.DarkSide_Asteroid_Medium_Gray;
where Darkside is the namespace of the project, and the rest accesses the resources
Here is a snippet of my build file:
<target name="build" depends="init" description="compiles the source code">
<property name="build.dir" value="${project::get-base-directory()}/${project::get-name()}/bin/release/${project.version}${basedir.suffix}"/>
<mkdir dir="${build.dir}"/>
<csc target="exe" output="${build.dir}/Darkside.exe" debug="${build.debug}">
<sources>
<include name="Darkside/*.cs"/>
</sources>
<resources >
<include name="${project::get-base-directory()}/${project::get-name()}/Properties/**" />
</resources>
</csc>
</target>

You should probably define the prefix for the resources tag (with dynamicprefix="true").
<target name="build" depends="init" description="compiles the source code">
<property name="build.dir" value="${project::get-base-directory()}/${project::get-name()}/bin/release/${project.version}${basedir.suffix}"/>
<mkdir dir="${build.dir}"/>
<csc target="exe" output="${build.dir}/Darkside.exe" debug="${build.debug}">
<sources>
<include name="Darkside/*.cs"/>
</sources>
<resources dynamicprefix="true" prefix="DarkSide">
<include name="${project::get-base-directory()}/${project::get-name()}/Properties/**" />
</resources>
</csc>
</target>
Indeed the csc task's documentation states:
Note: In order to have <csc> task generate manifest resource names that match those generated by Microsoft Visual Studio.NET, the value of the prefix attribute of the <resources> element should match the "Default Namespace" of the C# project, and the value of the dynamicprefix attribute should be set to "true".

Rename a file before Copy Task in ant build

I am new to ant build files.
Currently I get a list of files for build as:
a.cls
b.cls
c.cls
but in my local I have to run build on files, in the same directory:
a-meta.cls
b-meta.cls
c-meta.cls
Here meta keyword stays consistent. And I am using the following build.xml file. I am not sure how can I rename filename before actually copying them. I tried replace, mapper and other antlib tasks. But not helpful.
<project name="test" default="compile">
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml">
<classpath>
<pathelement location="lib/ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
<loadfile property="file" srcfile="filesToMove.txt"/> <!-- these are the list of files, i mentioned earlier -->
<target name="compile">
<echo>${file}</echo> <!-- here i have to rename file name to include -meta -->
<copy file="./classes/${file}" tofile="./src/classes/${file}" overwrite="true"/>
</target>
</project>
How to rename the files before moving them.
The solution to it was replacing the .cls to find only the name and then append the -meta.html. As follows (some portion is changed compared to previous version in the question)
<project name="test" default="compile">
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml">
<classpath>
<pathelement location="lib/ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
<loadfile property="file" srcfile="filesToMove.txt"/> <!-- these are the list of files, i mentioned earlier -->
<target name="compile">
<echo>${file}</echo> <!-- here i have to rename file name to include -meta -->
<copy file="./classes/${file}" tofile="./src/classes/${file}" overwrite="true"/>
<for param="file">
<path>
<fileset dir="./" includes="*.cls"/>
</path>
<sequential>
<basename file="#{file}" property="#{file}" suffix=".md"/>
<echo message=" ${#{file}}"/>
<copy file="${#{file}}-meta.cls" toDir="test"/>
</sequential>
</for>
</target>
</project>

Is it possible that a directory copied and pasted to a particular directory using XHTML plugin in DITA OT 1.8.5

Is it possible that a directory or a file copying from 'resource' folder in org.dita.xhtml to out put folder generated by the XHTML DITA OT transform.
If its possible using xsl changes in plugin its possible means provide me the code.
Any other way is there means please guide me the steps to do.
Please assist me.
You should use the depend.preprocess.post extension point, or another one that fits your needs, to call a new Ant target.
plugin.xml
<plugin id="com.example.extendchunk">
<feature extension="depend.preprocess.post" value="copyfiles"/>
<feature extension="dita.conductor.target.relative" file="myAntStuffWrapper.xml"/>
</plugin>
myAntStuffWrapper.xml
<dummy>
<import file="myAntStuff.xml"/>
</dummy>
myAntStuff.xml

<target name="copyfiles">
<copy todir="foo">

ANT compilation error on updating selenium test result on TestLink

I am trying to run the TestNG tests using ANT. ANT executes it fine and creates an xslt report. When I add code in TestNg test to update Testlink ANT compilation fails with an error:

Javac exclusion of package in ANT build.xml

I'm trying to compile all my packages except two of them, here is what my javac in build.xml looks like
<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${output}" debug="${debug}" failonerror="yes" >
<exclude name="com/abc/uyyy/**"/>
<exclude name="com/abc/zzz/**"/>
<include name="com/abc/zzz/Text.java"/>
<patternset refid="excluded.from.compilation.abc"/>
<classpath refid="abc.module.classpath"/>
</javac>
But all the files in package are compiled :(.
I've read the documentation (http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/javac.html), but still no success, any help?
NOTE: After the Text.java is compiled, I need to build the WSDL file and then build the excluded packages. I'm using Metro to write and build my WS.
Is it not possbile to compile all the class files into one directory, then use the copy task like below to only copy the ones you want for WSDL?
<target name="copy_all_class_files">
<copy todir="${output}">
<fileset dir="classes">
<include name="com/abc/zzz/Text.class"/>
<exclude name="com/abc/uyyy/**"/>
<exclude name="com/abc/zzz/**"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
</target>
Ok here is what I did,I wrote a new target to compile only the WS file and then generate the classes, it works fine :)
<target name="compile-ws-server">
<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${output}"
debug="${debug}" failonerror="yes">
<include name="com/abc/xxx/Text.java"/>
<exclude name="${src}/abc/xxx/**"/>
<classpath refid="abc.module.classpath"/>
</javac>
</target>
All Above is not proper way ...
I have done like
<target name="compile" depends="init">
<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${build}" excludes="com/company/example/test/**" />
</target>
Here we should avoid placing ${src} and start from inside src folder.

Log4Net "Could not find schema information" messages

I decided to use log4net as a logger for a new webservice project. Everything is working fine, but I get a lot of messages like the one below, for every log4net tag I am using in my web.config:
Could not find schema information for
the element 'log4net'...
Below are the relevant parts of my web.config:
<configSections>
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net" />
</configSections>
<log4net>
<appender name="RollingFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<file value="C:\log.txt" />
<appendToFile value="true" />
<rollingStyle value="Size" />
<maxSizeRollBackups value="10" />
<maximumFileSize value="100KB" />
<staticLogFileName value="true" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level: %message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
<logger name="TIMServerLog">
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppender" />
</logger>
</log4net>
Solved:
Copy every log4net specific tag to a separate xml-file. Make sure to use .xml as file extension.
Add the following line to AssemblyInfo.cs:
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile = "xmlFile.xml", Watch = true)]
nemo added:
Just a word of warning to anyone
follow the advice of the answers in
this thread. There is a possible
security risk by having the log4net
configuration in an xml off the root
of the web service, as it will be
accessible to anyone by default. Just
be advised if your configuration
contains sensitive data, you may want
to put it else where.
#wcm: I tried using a separate file. I added the following line to AssemblyInfo.cs
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile = "log4net.config", Watch = true)]
and put everything dealing with log4net in that file, but I still get the same messages.
You can bind in a schema to the log4net element. There are a few floating around, most do not fully provide for the various options available. I created the following xsd to provide as much verification as possible:
http://csharptest.net/downloads/schema/log4net.xsd
You can bind it into the xml easily by modifying the log4net element:
<log4net
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://csharptest.net/downloads/schema/log4net.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
I had a different take, and needed the following syntax:
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile = "log4net.xml", Watch = true)]
which differs from xsl's last post, but made a difference for me. Check out this blog post, it helped me out.

I believe you are seeing the message because Visual Studio doesn't know how to validate the log4net section of the config file. You should be able to fix this by copying the log4net XSD into C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\XML\Schemas (or wherever your Visual Studio is installed). As an added bonus you should now get intellisense support for log4net
In Roger's answer, where he provided a schema, this worked very well for me except where a commenter mentioned
This XSD is complaining about the use of custom appenders. It only allows for an appender from the default set (defined as an enum) instead of simply making this a string field
I modified the original schema which had a xs:simpletype named log4netAppenderTypes and removed the enumerations. I instead restricted it to a basic .NET typing pattern (I say basic because it just supports typename only, or typename, assembly -- however someone can extend it.
Simply replace the log4netAppenderTypes definition with the following in the XSD:
<xs:simpleType name="log4netAppenderTypes">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:pattern value="[A-Za-z_]\w*(\.[A-Za-z_]\w*)+(\s*,\s*[A-Za-z_]\w*(\.[A-Za-z_]\w*)+)?"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
I'm passing this back on to the original author if he wants to include it in his official version. Until then you'd have to download and modify the xsd and reference it in a relative manner, for example:
<log4net
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../Dependencies/log4net/log4net.xsd">
<!-- ... -->
</log4net>
Actually you don't need to stick to the .xml extension. You can specify any other extension in the ConfigFileExtension attribute:
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile = "log4net.config", ConfigFileExtension=".config", Watch = true)]
#steve_mtl: Changing the file extensions from .config to .xml solved the problem. Thank you.
#Wheelie: I couldn't try your suggestion, because I needed a solution which works with an unmodified Visual Studio installation.
To sum it up, here is how to solve the problem:
Copy every log4net specific tag to a separate xml-file. Make sure to use .xml as file extension.
Add the following line to AssemblyInfo.cs:
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile = "xmlFile.xml", Watch = true)]
For VS2008 just add the log4net.xsd file to your project; VS looks in the project folder as well as the installation directory that Wheelie mentioned.
Also, using a .config extension instead of .xml avoids the security issue since IIS doesn't serve *.config files by default.
Have you tried using a separate log4net.config file?
I got a test asp project to build by puting the xsd file in the visual studio schemas folder as described above (for me it is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\XML\Schemas) and then making my web.config look like this:

Without modifying your Visual Studio installation, and to take into account proper versioning/etc. amongst the rest of your team, add the .xsd file to your solution (as a 'Solution Item'), or if you only want it for a particular project, just embed it there.
I noticed it a bit late, but if you look into the examples log4net furnishes you can see them put all of the configuration data into an app.config, with one difference, the registration of configsection:
<!-- Register a section handler for the log4net section -->
<configSections>
<section name="log4net" type="System.Configuration.IgnoreSectionHandler" />
</configSections>
Could the definition it as type "System.Configuration.IgnoreSectionHandler" be the reason Visual Studio does not show any warning/error messages on the log4net stuff?
I followed Kit's answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/11780781/6139051 and it didn't worked for AppenderType values like "log4net.Appender.TraceAppender, log4net". The log4net.dll assembly has the AssemblyTitle of "log4net", i.e. the assembly name does not have a dot inside, that was why the regex in Kit's answer didn't work. I has to add the question mark after the third parenthetical group in the regexp, and after that it worked flawlessly.
The modified regex looks like the following:
<xs:pattern value="[A-Za-z_]\w*(\.[A-Za-z_]\w*)+(\s*,\s*[A-Za-z_]\w*(\.[A-Za-z_]\w*)?+)?"/>
