Use the Build Steps properties tab to customize the selected build configuration allowing for the specification of user defined build command steps, as well displaying a descriptive message in the build output, immediately before and after, normal build processing executes.
Group | Description |
---|---|
Pre-build Steps | Identifies any steps that are to occur before the build takes place.
Note: The pre-build step is not executed if the state of the main build is determined to be up to date; otherwise it is executed. An attempt to execute the main build will occur regardless of the success or failure of executing the pre-build step. |
Command | Specifies one or more commands to execute immediately before the execution of the build. Use semicolons to separate multiple commands. |
Description | Specifies optional descriptive text associated with the pre-build step that is displayed in the build output immediately before the execution of the pre-build step command (or commands). |
Post-build steps | Identifies any steps that are to occur after the build takes place.
Note: The post-build step is not executed if the state of the main build is determined to be up to date. It will be executed only if the main-build has executed successfully. |
Command | Specifies one or more commands to execute immediately after the execution of the build. Use semicolons to separate multiple commands. |
Description | Specifies optional descriptive text associated with the post-build step that is displayed in the build output immediately after the execution of the post-build step command (or commands). |
