Question

Can we execute a .bat file in post build event command line in visual studio?

Answer 1

As well as calling a .bat file, you can enter batch commands (i.e., the normal commands available from the Windows console--cmd.exe) directly into the Pre-build/Post-build fields. This may be preferable as it means you do not have to maintain the batch file separately, as all your commands will be part of the project.
