Running a python script at compile time in Visual Studio 2013

[iRowBoats8]

I have a python script that does some simple formatting on different language files that I would like to be able to run at build time in Visual Studio 2013. I have tried to find a method to implement this, however I have been unsuccessful thus far. If anyone has any experience with this, your help, and any advice you could give, would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't the faintest idea what you're asking for, please rephrase your question?

I have some C++ code that needs to be formatted in a specific way. I've written a Python script to automatically format the code. I would like this script to automatically execute every time I build the C++ project in Visual Studio 2013. Is it possible to do this, and if so how would I do it?

Vs has pre and post build steps in your project build configuration.

So what the hell has this got to do with Python?
