How to use an external build system for a Visual C ++ 2013 project?

Question

Can I use external build systemfor VC ++ 2013? I want Visual Studio to do nothing but build, invoking my build tools.

I am thinking of something like this:

• Put the entire build command in packages.
• Call the assembly package at the project level by right-clicking the project and selecting the assembly.

• Call the solution-level assembly package by right-clicking on the solution and selecting the assembly.

  Is there any pass-through tutorial? I searched a lot, but no luck.

After a brief introduction to the process, MSBuildI tried as shown below.

First I edit the project file *.vcxproj. I am changing DefaultTargetsfrom Buildto MyTarget.

<Project DefaultTargets="MyTarget" ToolsVersion="12.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">

MyTarget:

  <Target Name="MyTarget">
    <Message Text="Hello, Bitch!" />
  </Target>
