How to add evc built components ( exe,dll etc) into NK.bin of PB

Dear All,
Can anyone tell how to include MFC application/DLL built
using EVC++3.0 into PB3.0?
Should I also include MFC components separately into the
platform?
Pls clarify

Thanks

1. Copy the files to the _FLATRELEASE directory of PB. There are many ways
to do this, one would be to set the release folder in eVC to put them in
your Files directory, which is copied when you run buildrel.
2. Modify your platform or project .bib file to include the files in your
ROM image.
3. If you are dynamically linking with MFC then you do need to include them
in your project. Use SYSGEN variable to do this.

You can also wrap your applications in CEC components with copy action in a
premakeimg step.
This would allow you the inclusion of these applications in an image as
catalog components.

I thought of that, except that the question is about PB 3.0.

Gentlemen,
Many Thanks for your suggestions.
I included the components into the platform and made the
neccessary changes in the project.bib file too.
My application is built using mfc as statically linked
library.
However, I encounter the following error message while
trying to run the application:
"MFCCE300.dll is not found.One of the required components
is missing.Cannot run abc.exe"
Pls help

Thanks

That seems to indicate that you are dynamically linking with MFC.

Since you say that you are statically linking, I will assume that you are
correct. Could you be explicitly trying to access this dll in your code?
Are you dynamically linking to another dll, which is dynamically linking
with MFC?

you should be able to do it in CE 3.0, as long as the copy is done in the
buildrel step, instead of premakeimg ?!?
