"Build events" is a mechanism that allow for customisation when building a project.
This customisation is achieved in three steps:
1.
|
Each build event runs a batch file unique to the event.
This ensures that there are no limitations on the custom actions possible.
|
2.
|
The batch files can be included with a project or with the RTCU IDE.
This ensures that custom actions can be done both a single project and for all projects.
|
3.
|
The list of files and other project information is transferred via a temporary build file.
In addition to the project information, custom actions can add information for later custom actions.
The build file is created before the first build event and deleted after the last.
|
The supported build events are Pre-Build and Post-Build.
The "BuildEvent example" application is included to demonstrate a simple use of build events.
The application can be found with the other example projects at "My Documents\RTCU Projects\Examples".
