asspexports

asspexports

ASSP stands for Application Specific Standard Product. ASSP statements are for use by projects linking to the Symbian OS kernel, such as device drivers, so unless you are building such projects you can ignore this section.

If the asspexports statement is specified, this means that the project exports different functions for different ASSPs; in other words, the API of a particular version of the project will correspond to the hardware platform that version of the project is built for.

The asspexports statement has two effects:

• the import library for the project will be created in an ASSP-specific directory rather than in the usual directory for containing the ARM import libraries: epoc32\release\assp-name\variant\ rather than epoc32\release\platform-name\variant\

• the frozen .def file for the project will, by default, reside in an ASSP-specific directory rather than ..\bmarm\
