Title Body

i want to make VS copy the .lib-file it created after the build process to a specific folder. So i went to the project config, post-build event, and entered the following command: if exist $(TargetPath) xcopy "$(TargetPath)" "C:\Users\Incubbus\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\My Libraries\z.lib" /Y But instead of copying the process fails after i click "build" and i receive the following error: error MSB3073: The command "if exist C:\Users\Incubbus\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\My Libraries\MyNetWorkProject\Debug\IncNetworkLibD.lib xcopy "C:\Users\Incubbus\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\My Libraries\MyNetWorkProject\Debug\IncNetworkLibD.lib" "C:\Users\Incubbus\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\My Libraries\z.lib" /Y :VCEnd" exited with code 2. I am also wondering about the :VCEnd in the command-string of the error message <- Maybe this is the reason? How to get this solved? Any help and hints would be happily consumed :)... partial solution: EDIT : it looks like the renaming part ( Inc.lib to z.lib ) makes trouble, when xcopy asks whether this is a file or a directory...it works when i just copy the originally named file to a directory instead of copying renamed
