P.S. How do all you programmers handle the creation/compile/release date in your apps? Do you use a string resource in the RSC? Do you have a good way to auto-populate this or do you just manually set it before the last compile prior to release?
A script that writes out a header file that can be included in RCP and source files and then does the build seems like a good strategy. Making it check out your sources from version control and tag them with a release tag is also a good idea allowing you to reproduce older builds easily. If you're using CW, builds can be automated using cmdide to build a CW project from the command line.
If someone wants to contribute code to PilRC that predefines __DATE__ and __TIME__, I'm sure we'd accept it, especially now that 3.0 beta 4 allows string #defines in most places. See http://sourceforge.net/projects/pilrc.
