[edk2-devel] [Patch] Document: Add PCD_DYNAMIC_AS_DYNAMICEX to DSC defines section
Posted by Bob Feng 2 years, 9 months ago
Ref: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1688

DynamicEx Pcd supports binary module build well.
It's helpful to add a new build option for build tool
to convert all Dynamic Pcd to DynamicEx Pcd.

Add a new key word in defines section for this function.
