Compiling C # projects with resource files (*.resx,*.bmp,*.gif, etc.) with Nant

Scenario two: How to compile a project with a picture resource

You do not need to use (and should not use) <resgen> tags when the name of the resource filename is exactly the same as those vs.net automatically generated resource file names.

You should use the <resources> tag, compiled by the compile task to execute the compilation of the resource file at compile time.

Here is an example:

<target name= "Build" >
    <echo message= "compiling ${nant.project.name} project/> <CSC
    warnaserror=
    " True "
    debug=" ${build.debug} "
    doc=" ${build.dir}\bin\${nant.project.name}.xml "
    output=" ${build.dir}\ Bin\${nant.project.name}.dll "
    target=" library ">
    <sources failonempty=" true ">
      <includes Name= "**\*.cs"/>
      <includes name= ". \commonassemblyinfo.cs "/>
    </sources>
    <resources basedir=". "Prefix=" ${nant.project.name} " Dynamicprefix= "true" >
      <includes name= "arrows\*.gif"/> <includes name=
      "Checkboxes\*.bmp"/ >
      <includes name= "radiobuttons\*.gif"/>
    </resources>
    </csc>
  </ Target>
