Adding a post-build action

When you select the Post-build actions category and click Add, you'll see a dialog that lets you select one of four predefined post-build actions for your project:
  1. Copy result to other location
  2. Move result to other location
  3. >Rename result
  4. Run other shell command

In the What field, you specify the item (e.g. application) you want to copy or move; in the Where field, you specify the destination. You can use the To Workspace or To Filesystem buttons to locate the place.

If you select Rename result, a New Name field appears for you to enter the name. If you select Other command, enter the shell command in the field.

Note: You can set up more than one post-build action; they're processed sequentially.

Use the Import wizard to bring resources into your workspace from a filesystem, ZIP archive, or CVS repository.

To open the Import wizard:


  1. Choose File > Import… , or right-click Project Explorer view, and then choose Import…
