Building other configurations from active configuration



I have an application with international support in a Visual C++ 6.0
environment. My primary configuration is my debug configuration. In
order to properly support the international languages that we are, we
added new configurations to build resource-only dlls from the primary
..rc file, but use a series of #ifdef statements to make the necessary
changes for each language (namely the codepage and afx*.rc file
definitions). To this end, I repeatedly run my app, but forget to
re-build the dll when I make changes to the resource. Does anyone know
of a way to have VStudio re-build the dll configuration(s) whenever the
debug configuration is built (or, even better, when the debug
configuration is built and a change has been made to the resource)?
Maybe something in custom-build, or post-build?

Thanks,
Matt James
