in my project I have defined a post-build step, where the linked executable is moved to another directory. Now I wrote an addin for the Visual Studio, which handles the build events and do some actions on the linked executable after the build. My problem is, the post-build step of the Visual Studio is executed before the post-build event (OnBuildDone) is raised, so the executable is already moved from the build directory. How can I ensure, that my addin is executed before the post-build step of the VS?

    The short version:
    “The Post Build event is actually a part of MsBuild. That’s why the OnBuildDone is fired after the PostBuildEvent.”
