Hi,

I am trying to execute some commands in afterbuild event but they
simply wont fire. tried it on two different machines but I could not
get it to work

hier is my xml code :
<!-- To modify your build process, add your task inside one of the
targets below and uncomment it.
Other similar extension points exist, see
Microsoft.WebDeployment.targets.
-->
</Target>
<Target Name="BeforeMerge">
</Target>
<Target Name="AfterMerge">
</Target>
</Target>

and this is my result :

Did you check in the .proj file

Make sure you add your target to your .proj file in between the ItemGroup and Project nodes:

</ItemGroup>
<Target Name="AfterDropBuild">
<Message Text="AfterDropBuild..." />
</Target>
</Project>

Also, you .proj file needs to be checked in. For you to see your message in the log file, go to Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> Build and Run -> Set dropdown to 'Normal'

That should work.
