Run User Program Before Compilation of a C-File

I'm calling a user program to make a file called buildNr.h which contains

#define _BUILD_ 123


This file is included in the project.
I inserted the command into the "Options for Target - User - Run User ..."
This works but the disadvantage is, the tool is called every time a file gets compiled and since the project contains >12 files its timeconsuming and increments _BUILD_ by 12.
Any better solution?

  • I do not know if this is suitable for you: In our projects, we define some bytes at fixed location and are patching the build number after the linker run by using "After Build/Rebuild: Run User Program #1".
    By this, a new number is only assigned if the build was completed successfully.
