Updating the List of Modules for Debugging (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/5/2010

You can use the Release Directory Modules menu option in the Platform Builder IDE to add modules that override the list of modules in a particular run-time image. Typically, developers use this option to

  • Override retail versions of modules with debug versions
  • Update the list of modules with newer versions that have been recently revised
  • Initiate a debugging session that allows you to add modules for debugging without rebuilding

Platform Builder generates a complete list of available modules from the .opt file associated with the currently active workspace, and uses it to populate a list of modules available for debugging with the kernel debugger.

The Release Directory Modules option overrides the listed modules with the modules you select.

To update the list of modules available for debugging

  1. From the Platform Builder File menu, choose Open.

  2. Open the run-time image associated with the pre-built package.

  3. From the Target menu, select Release Directory Modules.

  4. Select Add..., and then add the modules you want loaded at runtime from the flat release directory. When you have specified all the modules you want, select OK.
