[edk2-devel] [edk2] DSC file : override FILE_GUID rule

[Tiger Liu(BJ-RD)]

Dear All:
I have a question about FILE_GUID override rule in dsc file.
For example:
  ......
  UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm.inf {
    <Defines>
      FILE_GUID = D1D74FE9-7A4E-41D3-A0B3-67F13AD34D94
    ......
  }

Usually, will define FILE_GUID in PiSmmCpuDxeSmm.inf .

Why override it in dsc file?

Thanks

IIRC, such overrides allow the platform DSC file to build the same
module multiple times, most likely with other overrides too (such as PCD
and lib class resolution). The resultant binaries will not conflict in
any firmware volume / firmware file-system, by FILE_GUID.

I don't remember the syntax, to be used in the FDF file, for refering to
all of the builds of the same module INF file.

Thanks
Laszlo

Re: [edk2-devel] [edk2] DSC file : override FILE_GUID rule

[Liming Gao]

In FDF, you also need to specify this file guid and match the one in DSC. The syntax is like below:

INF FILE_GUID= D1D74FE9-7A4E-41D3-A0B3-67F13AD34D94 UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm.inf

Thanks! (I assume there is no space character right after "FILE_GUID=".)
