Hi, I'm using the uVision2 environment for 8051 development. I have some tools that should run before the actual Keil c/asm/link step. In uVision2 the option exists to add "post" compile tools. But I can't find a way to add "pre" compile tools. Does anybody have a suggestion? (I would like to keep using the uVision environment to set compiler options easily; to enter debug mode;.... It would be ennoying to be forced to manually execute a batch file first before hitting the 'compile button') Off course, I could consider to write a makefile in MS Visual studio, but then I don't have a button to enter 'target debug mode' anymore. Thanks Patrick Brouckxon.
