Re: How to get Post-Build Event to launch GUI app, still edit.

Dave,

Personally, I think that MSBUILD is doing the right thing here. If you
want to get around this, you will have to create a new task which you use to
launch your code coverage too, one that will not wait for the program to
complete in order to proceed.

I'm trying to launch a code coverage tool as part of the post build event
for
a special debug configuration. It launches just fine, but Visual Studio
is
busy waiting for the post build to finish before it allows any
modifications
to take place. I would like to be able to work back and forth between
modifying the unit test and looking at the coverage information.

I have tried putting the Start command inside the batch as well as. It
works fine if I run the batch file outside of Visual studio but doesn't
help
if inside.

Any help appreciated.
