Here is what I'd rather do:

- copy taskman directory from Public to Platform\mybsp
- change sources file so that it would generate an exe but not a lib (it
will imply adding some targetlibs entries, as you'll have to handle
unresolved external)
- have taskman.exe built succesfully
- add taskman.exe to your bib file, and modify reg file so that it is
"Launch50" (as you've already done)
