Signing C ++ executable in Visual Studio

Question

Is there a way to automatically sign the C ++ executable generated by Visual Studio 2008? I could not find anything like the Signature tab in the properties that exists for managed applications.

Any ideas? I want to automatically sign my executable file when it is created (using the msbuild command line).

Use signtool ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8s9b9yaz%28VS.80%29.aspx ) in the post-build phase
