"$(SolutionDir)rsrcgen.exe" "$(ProjectDir)$(AssemblyName).info" "dir=$(ProjectDir)\" debug=$(UseDebugLibraries) platform=$(PlatformTarget)

rsrcgen.exe PATH\rsrcgen.info dir=PATH debug=false platform=x86

Note

This tool is actually nothing much more than a very simple string replacing tool with predefined content. Written as very simplistic, for single purpose, does not even free allocated memory.
