Abstract
Custom build tools are integrated into a design environment build process without writing code. Properties of the tool are defined in a file describing the appropriate syntax of the tool's command line. Values are specified for a particular use of the tool in a particular project. At runtime the command line for the tool is generated from the generalized syntax as defined in the file and the stored values.
