MakePRI.exe configuration

The PRI XML configuration file controls how and what resources are indexed. The configuration XML must conform to the following schema:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xs:element name="resources">

The recommended and easiest way to generate a makepri configuration file is to use the MakePRI.exe createconfig option.

  • The index element defines discrete indexing passes that are done over the assets. Each indexing pass determines the format-specific indexers to use, and which resources to index.
  • The root attribute is the path root of the physical file for the index pass. It can be relative or absolute. If relative, it is appended to the project root that you provide in the command line. If absolute, it is directly used as the index pass root. Back or forward slashes are acceptable. Trailing slashes are trimmed. The root of the index pass determines the folder to which all resources are considered relative.
  • The startIndexAt attribute is the initial seed file or folder used in indexing. It is relative to the index pass root. An empty value assumes the index pass root folder.
  • The qualifiers element sets the initial qualifiers for the first file or folder that other resources inherit. Each qualifier element must have a valid name and value (see How to name resources using qualifiers).
  • The default element specifies the context (language, contrast, etc.) that should be used to resolve resources when the runtime context does not match any resource candidates. Because this context is specified at build time and does not change, resources are resolved to this context as qualifiers are created, The matched score is stored at build time. Every qualifier must have some value specified. See the ResourceContext section of the Resource Management System topic for details on how resources are chosen.
