Overriding Existing Modules in a Run-Time Image (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

  • Article

1/6/2010

If you have created a new module in your OS design, such as a new dynamic-link library (DLL), you can override the existing module in the run-time image without having to rebuild the run-time image. To do this, you select modules from a list of the available modules to load from the release directory onto the target device.

Platform Builder generates a list of modules in the release directory that are associated with the current OS design. This list is stored in Dbglist.txt which is also located in the release directory. Each time you open a different OS design, the contents of Dbglist.txt are overwritten with the list of modules associated with the new OS design.

To override an existing module in a run-time image

  1. Create a new module that replaces an existing module in the run-time image. The details of creation are beyond the scope of this document.

  2. From the Target menu, choose Release Directory Modules.

  3. To add a module to the list, choose Add.

    The Add Module dialog box appears.

  4. In the Add Module dialog box, select the module you want to add, then choose OK.

    The Add Module dialog box appears.

  5. (Optional) To remove a module from the list, select the module you want to remove, and then choose Remove.

  6. To apply your changes and close the dialog box, choose OK.
