display driver building in platform builder 5.0, mainstoneii bsp

well, i couldn't find which source file is used to build the
pxa27x_lcd.dll??? i have to modify the code but i don't want to mess with
the orginal codes. all i can find is
C:\WINCE500\PUBLIC\COMMON\OAK\CSP\ARM\INTEL\PXA27X\DISPLAY\PXA27X_LCD
which is a lib. not a dll.

any help?

ok i found it. it's built with public codes.......along with other brand's
cpu in a messy file.
MS is really doing a bad job in code placment.
lcd parameters are in source code and the source is placed in a shared
folder. everybody should be using different lcd so i don't think it is a
good idea.

Just copy it to Your platform and modify as You want.
However You will need to modify XLLP lib LCD routines
as well as LCD driver itself.
I'm agree with You, it is not very clear why they use hardcoded
things in the CSP libs (eg. Fixed LCDs or FPGA stuff). Is it really
CPU Support Package or just parts of Mainstone BSP in the
PUBLIC tree? The same applies to the
PLATFORM/COMMON/.../PXA27x OAL lib.

I really like CSP and Common OAL ideas, since
a zillion of developers are doing the same things
on different platforms and spend a lot of time
for this. However implementation was not so good
as idea :( Hope to see some changes in the next
release.

well the driver provided by intel was a standalone bsp.
and then MS modified a little bit(removed some important memory bus setting
conditional compile), moved them(e.g. xllp) to CSP. but this CSP is BSP
afterall.
during the move from csp to my own BSP, i found that the pxa27x cache lib is
based on 25x cache, it's just a empty source file which include the 25x
cache. but i can't get it built this way. i have to include the 25x .s .c
files in my 27x cache source file.
anyway it's just my 0.2c.
