  • [SOLVED] Solution build not triggering project build

    When building from the solution level, per-project pre-build steps are not triggered. Attached is a sample project file. Not that the linker is unhappy but that should not matter (and is a completely different SES bug)

    What should happen on solution build:
    • Library_1 builds and calls the test script with "Library_1" as the parameter
    • Executable_1 builds and calls the test script with "Executable_1" as the parmater
    What actually happens:
    • Test script is not called at all
    For solutions there is no option for pre-build. Pre-compile is applied to every single compile file, not what we want. I would expect that a project's build steps would trigger from a solution build but this is not happening.

    This is similar to an abandoned question here

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your inquiry.
    With the latest Embedded Studio V4.18 you should now have the pre build option as a solution option as well.
    Could you give it a try? Is that what you were looking for?

    Best regards,
    Nino

  • Hello,

    Thanks, I must have missed that in the release notes so we'll give it a try.
    We're still testing 4.18 since it looks like the embedded version of GCC had a major point change and we're seeing some perf loss.
