Apparently, I was mistaken. The policies can be applied for e.g. Compiler Settings, Linker Settings etc., but not for the Pre/Post build steps. It seems that the target post-build steps are always executed before the project post-build steps.
Hence, if the target post-build fails, the project post-build will not be executed...

BTW: you can switch between project and target settings by selecting the appropriate entry in the tree on the left-hand side...

Useful remark. Thanks.

Yes it's the case ... whatever policy I set, both post-builds commands ("project" and "target") are executed, so if one of them is out of date, it must be removed in order to "up-to-date" version runs.

I suppose, that the issue with main1.o occured because I didn't save the project (proj1.cbp) file. That's why even "target post-build" was empty (after my eventual modification), its trace persisted in .cbp file and obfuscated the execution of "project post-build". Isn't it ?
