Run User Program Before Compilation of a C-File

Peter Keller

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 need DATE and TIME in old style.

    And it doesn't matter if I change 1, 2, ... or all source files.
    If I get a new output file I need the current DATE+TIME cause it's not the same the the one before.

    I would expect that a BUILD number is also incremented.

    But I haven't a solution to run the tool only at rebuild all, sorry.
