Ok, I a closer look showed me it works. I.e. the build is triggered indeed.

Yes I have seen this. There it talks about *.y files. But how shall I 
apply this to my
custom code generator? I am trying to put my *.psp file to the list of 
my sources
and then have a make rule like
make myfile.hpp : myfile.psp : @mycustomtoolaction ;

I get an error that says:
error: traget { myfile.psp. } has no type

Does this work only for *.y files? Or can I also use my own tools?
Would I need to write a tool similar to the y file generator?

Thank you for help.
