Override Modules (Compact 2013)

  • Article

3/26/2014

You can override modules in the run-time image by specifying modules for Platform Builder to load directly from the Release directory instead of from the run-time image. By specifying Release directory modules, you can:

  • 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 in which you add modules for debugging without rebuilding.

Platform Builder obtains a complete list of available modules from the .opt file for the currently active workspace, and, from that complete list, creates a list of the modules that are available for debugging with the kernel debugger.

The following procedure shows you how to load modules directly from the Release directory instead of from the run-time image.

To override modules of a run-time image

  1. In Platform Builder, open your OS design solution.

  2. On the Platform Builder Target menu, click Release Directory Modules.

  3. In the Release Directory Modules dialog box, click Add, and then select the modules that you want loaded from the Release directory at runtime.

  4. When you are finished adding modules, click OK.
