Hello,

I'm trying to use the "Compiler commands" -> "Execute before" to generate a file that will be embedded as a resource in the executable, but it seems the command is executed after the resources are compiled (there's a message complaining that the file is not found and in fact when I execute the program the resource is not available).
Is there a way around it, other than executing the command manually?

If you mean the project .res file:
That is updated on save, which is independent of compile.

Ouch, so my projects that embed files as resources (and I also added those files to the project to be sure they're tracked by lazarus) are working by pure luck. Or not, since a save happens anyway when the file is modified with the lazarus editor and I use compile or build, right? What happens if I edit the file with an external editor, it's not currently opened in lazarus (so it won't prompt me to reload it) and I press compile/build/run? Will the .res be regenerated or not? As I said, for the problem at hand I changed the logic, but I'd like to be sure that my project work by design and not by chance.

Bye
