This dialog allows you to specify programs that are executed during the build process. You may pass arguments from the µVision project manager to these user programs using a Key Sequence.

Before Compilation of a C/C++ File

Run User Program

Allows you run programs before the compilation of each C/C++ source file (typical used for extensive syntax checkers such as MISRA tools).

Used only for older programs that must run in a 16-bit DOS environment.

Used only for older programs that must run in a 16-bit DOS environment.

After Build/Rebuild

Run User Program

DOS16

Used only for older programs that must run in a 16-bit DOS environment.

Beep When Complete

Gives an acoustic signal when build process is complete.

Start Debugging

Starts the Debugger after the compile process is complete.

Examples:

• Run User Program #1: C:\Utilities\Programmer.exe -d271001 #H
  
  Call with an application specific parameter and with the full path Hex Output file (#H means C:\MyProject\Project1.HEX).
• Run User Program #2: C:\Utilities\Emulator.exe "%L" -p"$P"
  
  Call with the linker output file ("%L" means "Project1") and with the project folder name (as application parameter -p with "$P" means C:\MyProject).

Note

• You should enclose the Key Sequence with quotes ("") if you use folder names with special characters (i.e. space, ~, #).
