Unfortunately, no.  The list is for the case where there are multiple
instances of the target tool in the ToolChain that are filtered by the
"nature" - e.g., different linkers for C vs. C++.

I don't remember a way to do what you want.  Maybe someone else does.

That was it!

But now another question. I want to run several 'post-build' steps.
These each 
take the .exe as input and create different outputs (srec, and various
'listing' 
files). Is it just a case of adding each to the TargetTool attribute?

Thanks,
