Catalog Entry Properties
Catalog Entry Properties
Each catalog entry has a number of properties that you can modify in Platform Builder, as illustrated in Figure 1-6. The most important properties include the following
? Unique Id A unique identifier string.
? Name The name of the catalog component as it appears in the Catalog Items View.
? Description An expanded description of the component, which appears when the user hovers the mouse pointer over the catalog item for several seconds.
? Modules A list of files that belong to this catalog component.
? Sysgen variable An environment variable for the catalog item. If your catalog component sets a SYSGEN variable, this is where to put it.
? Additional Variables A collection of additional environment variables for the catalog item. This is possibly the most important part of the catalog component in a BSP, because this field enables you to set environment variables used in sources, .bib, and .reg files to control the build process. You can also use this field to generate dependencies on other components.
? Platform directory The location of the catalog item files. For a new BSP, set this property to the name of the BSP's directory.

NOTE
Unique names
Each catalog component must have a unique ID, typically composed of the vendor and the component names. When you clone a BSP by using the Clone Catalog Item feature, Platform Builder creates a unique name for the cloned component automatically; however, when editing catalog files manually, be sure to use unique identifiers.
