Tutorial Step 4: Adding BIB Information

After creating a feature implementation, you need to add binary image builder (BIB) information to the implementation that provides information that the build system requires to deploy the feature to an OS image.

To add BIB Information

  1. In the CEC Editor window, select the My Feature node.

  2. From the Insert menu, choose BIB Information, and then choose BIB File.

  3. From the CPUs list, select emulator, and then choose OK.

    The IDE automatically highlights the new emulator .bib file node in the CEC Editor window. If the node is not highlighted, then select the emulator node.

  4. From the Insert menu, choose BIB Information, and then choose BIB Record.

  5. In the File Path box, type $(_WINCEROOT)\Samples\MyFeature\MyFeature.dll.

  6. In the Image Name box, type MyFeature.dll, and then choose OK.

  7. From the File menu, choose Save.

You have successfully added BIB information to the feature implementation. You are now ready to add the feature to the Catalog.

For more information about code that you can add to the BIB Information block, see Binary Image Builder File.
