Title: Running a tool configured in "Tools" after building

Hi!

I just wanted to know if its possible to automatically run a tool
after a succesful build?
Is there a compiler setting or something for that?
Its pretty tiresome to have to run them by hand after building...

Thanks in advance!

You can define pre and post build steps in the projects build options.

Can you point me on something that explains it?

Thanks alot, again!

edit:
Okay, so, the link does not say anything about this,
can I use the same makros I can use int the user-defined tools?
i.e. ${TARGET_OUTPUT_BASENAME} or ${TARGET_OUTPUT_DIR}

Yes, and you can also use your global vars.
