Determining Which Sysgen Variables Are Included in a Run-Time Image (Windows CE 5.0)

After you build a run-time image based on an OS design, you can determine the functionality included in the run-time image by viewing the list of Sysgen variables that are used.

Knowing what is included helps you determine the modifications you can make in your design. For more information about Sysgen variables, see Sysgen Variables.

When you run the Build Demo tool (Blddemo.bat) from a command prompt, or by selecting an option for building your run-time image from the Build OS menu, the build system creates a file that contains a list of explicitly included Sysgen variables used to build the run-time image.

This file is called Sysgensettings.out, and is in the associated release directory for your workspace, such as %_WINCEROOT%\PBWorkspaces\<OS design name>\RelDir\<OS design configuration>.

For more information, see Build System and Build Phases.

To view the Sysgen variables for your OS design

  1. Be sure you created and built a run-time image based on an OS design.

  2. Navigate to the release directory for your workspace and then use a text editor to open Sysgensettings.out.

    This file displays the list of Sysgen variables explicitly included in the run-time image for your OS design.
