I managed to set the compiler to execute another program when the project is built/ran with the following directive in project options:

call program.exe param1 param2

The problem is that the compiler executes "program.exe" and waits for it to terminate and THEN the project executable is ran.

What I ask: How to set the compiler to run both executables in paralel without waiting for the one in PostBuild event to terminate?

Thanks in advance
