How to automatically execute a shell command after building in Visual Studio 2005

Question

Is it possible with Visual Studio 2005 alone?

If not with TFS ?

Answer 1

You can use the Post-Build event for that.

It should also be possible in TFS, but which version of TFS are you using?

Answer 2

In the project, choose properties, and then go to "build events" and add a post-build event.

Answer 3

Go into your project properties (ALT+F7)

Configuration Properties -> Build Events -> Post-Build Event -> Command Line

Answer 4

In VS 2005, right-click on your project in the Solution explorer, select properties and go to Build events and type in your command in the Post Build events.

Hope this helps.
