Platform Builder configures many compiler and linker options that affect debugging during the build process using environment variables. You can set some options from the IDE, or you can set any compiler and linker option from the command line.

To set compiler options for debugging from the IDE

  1. From the Platform menu, choose Settings.
  2. From the Configuration drop-down list, select the device configuration you want to use.
  3. On the Build Options tab, select one or more of the following options.

    • Enable Kernel Debugger

      Select before building the run-time image to allow the debugger to connect and pass debugging information from the target device to the host device. The kernel debugger requires a KITL or hardware-assisted transport.

    • Enable KITL

      Select to enable KITL as a transport layer for communication between the development workstation and the target device for debugging.

    • Enable profiling

      Select to enable Windows CE kernel profiling in the run-time image.

To set compiler options for debugging from the command line

You can specify compiler build options

  • On the command line
  • In response files
  • In the CL environment variable.

For more information about specifying compiler options, see Compiler Build Mechanisms.
