The Wiert Corner - irregular stream of stuff: jpluimers

StackOverflow user David Heffernan – Stack Overflow has an interesting take on Delphi postbuild events:

At the moment my actiona read:

if exist PostBuild.bat call PostBuild.bat $(Platform) $(Config) $(OutputDir)

And then the PostBuild.bat script calls a Python script so that I can write my scripts in a real language.

I actually impose the build actions in a shared option set that I reference from all of my projects. That way I enforce consistency and predictability.

I know others use tools like FinalBuilder but building is so important that I feel it’s worth my effort in rolling my own tooling.
