Question

I am using Eclipse for C++ development on windows. I have also written a code generator that take an xml file and produces several C++ files. The project I am working on is currently setup to use the internal builder. What I would like to do is to run the code generator as part of the build process.

My problem is that I haven’t been able to find a way to make Eclipse identify that the files are present (or have been updated) without ‘Refeshing’ the project. So although I can run the code generator as a pre-build step, the files generated aren’t guaranteed to be included in the build.

Does anybody know whether there is a way to make Eclipse do a refresh after the pre-build step or something to that effect, using the internal builder?

Thanks

You can add a Builder to your project.
