STM32 CubeMX V6.12.1 remove PostBuild command line in IAR

[Makarand]

Hello, 

I recently upgraded my CubeMX to V6.12.1 from V6.6.1. All of a sudden, I have realised that when I generate code from the updated CubeMX, it removes my Post build command line from my IAR EWARM project. 

Is there a new setting or such that I am missing that does not do that? Or is it a CubeMX problem? 

I thank you in advance!

Hello @Makarand 

First let me thank you for posting.

1- In STM32CubeMX, ensure that the option "Backup previously generated files when re-generating" is checked. This setting can help preserve your previous configurations, including build steps, although it may not guarantee complete retention of custom commands.

2- Scripted Backup: Create a script that automatically saves your current post-build commands to a separate file before each code generation.

3- Check the project settings in IAR and ensure that the post-build commands are correctly configured under Project > Options >  Build Actions > Post-build Command. Sometimes, reconfiguring these settings can help maintain them during regeneration.
