PREfast Build Command Switches (Windows CE 5.0)
PREfast build command switches allow you to customize the PREfast build.
To use a PREfast build command switch, specify the switch before the build command. The following example specifies the /log and /update switches.
prefast /log=MyLogfile.txt /update nmake <nmake-arguments>
Switches are case insensitive and can be preceded by either a slash (/) or a hyphen (-).
The following PREfast switches are available for use with your build command.
| Switch | Description |
|---|---|
? |
Opens a quick syntax help file. |
HELP |
Opens a quick syntax help file. |
FILTERPRESET=filtername |
Specifies using a filter preset. |
LOG=logfile |
Specifies a location for the defect log file.
If nothing is specified, a default location is used. |
STACKHOGTHRESHOLD=nnnn |
Enables you to specify the stack usage threshold above which the Precedence defect module flags a function as a stack hog. |
You can also combine PREfast build command switches with PREfast commands. For example, the following command-line specifies that MyLogfile.txt should be displayed at the console.
prefast /log=MyLogfile.txt LIST
