Subject: [Patch] BaseTools: Sometime write file not immediate to disk
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2019 12:57:15 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1554958635-9588-1-git-send-email-liming.gao@intel.com> (raw)

From: Yunhua Feng <yunhuax.feng@intel.com>

BZ: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/process_bug.cgi

On Windows OS, sometime the generated file is not immediate saved to disk.
When run nmake, prompt AutoGen.h not found, and stop build.
Below blog shows Write-Replace to fix it. This patch uses this way to write
temp file, then rename the temp file to the real file.
