	Hello, I'm trying to add extra flags to my project that is evaluated : %""" The evaluation works in VS intellisense but not in the build. Is it possible to have this ? Thanks, (VS 2019, Visual studio up to date).

	Thanks for the report. There are a few known ways of doing this (depending on specific requirements) where you can either use the standard C++ Macros, or run a script to inject the version information into a header within the project at build time (which could include hashes etc). We have a YouTube video covering this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQ8O9Hi3cDA Which also links to a demo project: https://www.visualmicro.com/downloads/VerifiableBoardFirmware.zip Does that help?
