FIXUPVAR (Windows CE 5.0)

FIXUPVAR is used to initialize a kernel global variable during the Make Binary Image phase of the build process.

You can also use this flag for OS design-specific physical memory initialization with multiple possible values that can be controlled with MAKEIMG flags.

The following code example shows the declaration for a sample kernel global variable called gpdwVariable, with a value of 0.

const DWORD gpdwVariable = 0;

After gpdwVariable is declared, the following code example shows how to use FIXUPVAR to fix up gpdwVariable to the address 12345678.

gpdwVariable 00000000 12345678 FIXUPVAR

**Note   **This must be done in the MEMORY section of the .bib file.
