Webstorm: Execute .bat on save - webstorm

I have a simple bat which merges my .js files into one single file.
I'd like to execute it every time I save anything in webstorm..
Can this be done?

It's not possible as WebStorm saves all the files automatically when needed, there is no trigger to be called on individual file save.
As a workaround you can create a macro that will save all the files and run the external tool, then bind this macro to default Save All shortcut. Now when you save the files via hotkey, IDE will also run your batch script.
Another possible solution would be to use some external service that will watch specified files for changes and run an external tool when they change.

Using File Watcher.
Go to File | Settings | Tools | File Watchers for Windows and Linux or WebStorm | Preferences | Tools | File Watchers for OS X and click + to add a new tool.

Compile and execute cpp in xcode, and add additional execution instructions, Such as iconv command

Sorry, I'm new to Xcode and not very familiar with it, I use Xcode (command line tool project with external build system) to compile cpp files and automatically execute cpp unix executable files. After the program is compiled (command+R), I set the settings as shown in the screenshot below to automatically execute. Is there any way for me to execute also add additional commands?
Such as iconv.
The following line is what I ultimately want to execute.
./myFile argument1 | iconv -f big5
But my Xcode looks like it's executing only
./myFile argument1
really thanks
On the same place where you setup the build scheme, you can also add a post-build script.
Go to the left of the panel, and expand Build
Select Post-actions
Near the bottom center, click on + -> New Run Script Action
Add script like you would run them in terminal
Note the current directory will not be where the project is built
You can use ${TARGET_BUILD_DIR} macro for the build directory
Note, you want to make sure to select your current project at the Provide build settings from so it can import the correct path macros like TARGET_BUILD_DIR
A screenshot of adding a post-build script:
*Older versions of Xcode might have different GUI, but the idea should be about the same.
Sidenote, ⌘R is really for running the program within Xcode, consider using ⌘B.

Run a jar Rhapsody app file

I have created some Java applications to extend Rhapsody using Java API and I have deployed them successfully to the Rhapsody environment (Right click on the project -> Apps).
I can see the exported .jar files under the directory RhapsodyApps/apps.
My question is, How can I run them from the command line (Under windows 7)???
Thank you in advance
What I managed to do is to create a .bat file, using "Generate Apps Execution Batch File". As I mentioned in my last post it did not exist in the "Apps" menu of rhapsody. Besides, it existed in the "...\share\RhapsodyApps\apps" directory with the name "SynchronousScriptInvocation.jar". I hardcoded the RhapsodyApps.hep file, by adding the following:
#REM: This app generates a script which will invoke each app synchronously one after another. ...
name7=Apps\Generate Apps Execution Batch File
isPluginCommand7=1
command7=Apps
applicableTo7=Project,SysML,AUTOSAR_40,AUTOSAR_31,AUTOSAR_32,DDS,UPDM1_DoDAF20,UPDM2_DoDAF
isVisible7=1
I got the name (Generate Apps Execution Batch File) from the AppInfos.xml file.
Then, the plugin is displayed in the Apps menu in Rhapsody IDE, and I can generate the .bat file. Problems did not stop here. The batch file was not displaying my plugin and the reason was something with my JAVA_PATH configuration. Finally I modified the .bat file as following:
#rem This is auto generated script. Be careful on changing it manually.
#rem Build Order
set APP0=0df8829923eb43f4aab9d33ada1ddbf1
#set APPS= %APP0%
set JAVA_PATH=%JAVA_PATH%\bin\java
set JAVA_API=C:/work/User/Build.TRUNK/ProjectName/RhapsodyShare8/JavaAPI
set RhapsodyApps=C:/work/User/Build.TRUNK/ProjectName/RhapsodyShare8/RhapsodyApps
set CLASS_PATH="%RhapsodyApps%"/apps/RhapsodyAppLauncher.jar;"%RhapsodyApps%"/RhapsodyApps.jar;"%RhapsodyApps%"/apps.jar;"%JAVA_API%"/rhapsody.jar
"C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody\8.0.5\jre\bin\java" -cp %CLASS_PATH% -Djava.library.path="%JAVA_API%" apps.RhapsodyLauncherApp %APPS%
Finally it works. I hope that this post will help somebody in the future.

How can I make sure that a file is compiled on every build n msvc? [duplicate]

In one cpp-file I use the __DATE__ macro to get the compile-date.
It gives me the date of the last compile of that file. But as the file is not changed very often, the date is old in most cases, sometimes several months.
What I actually want is the date of the last build of the project.
Is there an setting to force VS2010 to rebuild that single cpp-file on every compile of the project?
Regardless of changes in the file?
The only way I found until now is to modify the file or delete the created obj-file by an script before the build, I would prefer an solution inside VS if that is possible.
You could probably add a Pre-Build Step that touch (see this thread) the file?
To add a Pre-Build Step, open your Project Properties, then Configuration Properties > Build Events > Pre-Build Event then add the command line you want to have executed in Command Line.
Following the suggestion from Amitd, apparently you can also touch the file using PowerShell, see this for explanations.
As suggested by Adrian McCarthy in the comments below, deleting the .obj file would be preferable in the context where source control is used and you want to keep the .cpp read-only. Using the "macros" exposed by Visual Studio, deleting them can be made easy:
del $(TargetDir)sourcefile.obj
Quoted from Cheers and hth. - Alf as another way to achieve this
nmake (bundled with Visual Studio and the SDK) option /t does a touch, it was once the conventional way to do this for Windows programmers.
You can add the following pre-build step, were you simply touch the date stamp of the file. The +,, is a special flag to the copy command, telling it to update the timestamp of the file:
copy file.cpp +,,
As suggested by Adrian McCarthy, you can simply delete the object file every time you build the project.
Therefore, create a pre-build event invoking the del command. According to Microsoft, you can use the $(IntDir) macro to refer to the directory wher the object file is stored (you should not use the $(TargetDir) macro).
I had issues with the return code of the command (error MSB3073), therefore I changed the command to always exit with 0.
del $(IntDir)datefile.obj & exit 0
Create this build event in the project configuration, under Configuration Properties / Build Events.

How to get last build label in text file

I have one project which is under Cruise control.
I want to write one console application which will write the last build label of that project in one text file.
CruiseControl passes CCNetLabel argument to script that it invokes. You can just print this out to a file from the script without writing a console application.
If you need to retrieve project version from outside of the CruiseControl, then you can either access this file (i.e.: by exposing it via IIS) or poll and parse XML report of CruiseControl dashboard (which is located at http://BuildServer/XmlServerReport.aspx)
Depends on what flavour of cruisecontrol you use ? For default, java version, i have something like this
<schedule showProgress="true">
<composite showProgress="true">
<exec timeout="2400" command="${homedir}/bin/updatebuildid" args="${sbhomedir}/projects/${project.name} ${label}"/>
..... etc ..
And updatebuild script is basicly a shellscript for invoking sed to add a postfix to a version number in the packaging files. for you it could be just simple "echo $1 > $yourfile"
