Compile to two places at once?

I run multiple Sierra Charts setups. One on one broker, and one on another broker. I use slightly different strategies for them, yet I use one indicator set that I program in.

I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013.

Is there a way for me to compile to both of these locations?:
C:\SierraChart\Data\
C:\SierraChart\SierraChartTransActMA\Data\

Thanks :)

The typical way this is done is to set up a Post Build Event in Visual C++ after the build process is done to copy the necessary DLL file to the other installation.

In Linux I compile in one directory and I symbolic link to the directories that use the exe.

Doesn't windows have a soft symbolic link? Then you compile once but all of your SC instances can see the new version (they also can all lock it to prevent compilation if in use in Linux).
