Customizing a .cec File Using the CEC Editor
If you have used the BSP Wizard to create a Catalog Feature (.cec) file, you may want to further customize the file to fit your needs, such as adding support for microprocessors or adding actions to be performed during the build process. You can use the CEC Editor to accomplish these tasks.
To use the CEC Editor to modify a Catalog feature file
From the Tools menu, choose CEC Editor.
From the File menu, browse for your .cec file, and then choose Open.
In the left pane of the CEC Editor, select your driver, and then, in the right pane, choose the Advanced tab.
You can modify or remove the value in the BSP Directory box to reflect the BSPs that can use your driver. It is recommended that you leave this box blank, as this enables your driver to be used with any BSP.
In the left pane, choose the BSP icon.
In the right pane, select one of the items from the Step list, which indicates when the driver should be built.
In the CPUs box, choose the microprocessors you want to support with your driver.

In the Supported Core OS box, choose the OS configurations that you want the driver to support.
It is recommended that you choose Select All or Select None.
In the left pane, choose the PreMakeImg icon.
In the right pane, select one of the items from the Step list, which indicates when the driver should be built. If you select a different step, the PreMakeImg icon will be renamed to reflect the change.
In the CPUs box, choose the microprocessors you want to support with your driver.

Choose the Standard button to choose the default CPUs that are installed on the development workstation.
