As our process for publishing new tools were quite complex, we decided that we should find a way to simplify this process. The result was that I made an addon for Visual Studio that lets you publish new tools directly from within the development environment. The user is presented with a wizard that ask for the required details, as well as gather the information needed from different sources to let the user do the relevant choices. The tool is then compiled, version number is updated as you chose, prepared for sending to Perforce, and finally placed in Perforce with a label in the correct format.
