Custom build step in VS2008
-
Hi all, I have a question about the custom build step in Visual Studio. Custom build step runs fine, but it compiles always at 'Start Debug' and 'Build', without any change of the source code. What triggers the compilation, or what prevents a compilation in case the source code is unchanged? Any ideas? jung-kreidler

IIRC, you need to specify what output files the build step produces. Then, VS can check if the outputs are older than the source and know to do the build. If there are no outputs specified, then it'll always do the build step, as it doesn't know any different.
