	I have a perl script to generate automatically a C file of my project. I tried to add a custom build step in VisualStudio to call this script at the beginning of build. It is not called. Looks like vMicro is taking the control on the whole build process and ignore my customization. How to achieve that? Thanks.

	Hi, Visual Micro implements the Arduino build hooks but it is on the list to also implement the vs events. You can read about the arduino hooks on the arduino.cc site. Here is an example from the RedBear labels platform.txt which uses a post build hook. Code s}/sh" "{runtime.platform.path}/tools/crc32/{runtime.os}/crc32.sh" "{build.path}/{build.project_name}.bin" "{runtime.platform.path}/tools/crc32/{runtime.os}" "{compiler.path}"
