dwNKDrWatsonSize (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/5/2010

This variable specifies the amount of memory for the Windows Embedded CE Error Reporting dump area.

Syntax

extern DWORD dwNKDrWatsonSize;

Parameters

None.

Return Value

None.

Remarks

There is a kernel implementation of a default RAM-based Windows Embedded CE Error Reporting dump. OEMs can use the default implementation by setting the size of the Windows Embedded CE Error Reporting dump area in the OEMInit function, as follows:

extern DWORD dwNKDrWatsonSize;
void OEMInit (void)
{
   dwNKDrWatsonSize = 0x20000
}

To implement the Windows Embedded CE Error Reporting dump in real persistent storage, which can persist the Windows Embedded CE Error Reporting dump even after a complete power loss, OEMs can override the following function pointers to the OEM-specific Windows Embedded CE Error Reporting support functions.

• pfnNKDrWatsonFlush
• pfnNKDrWatsonClear
• pfnNKDrWatsonRead
• pfnNKDrWatsonWrite
