-Overview
---------
-The Merge program is designed to merge the contents of similar modules into a
-single module for size reduction. The combined module will link in one copy of
-the libraries, rather than have multiple copies of the libraries linked in to
-each individual driver.
-
-Rules:
- The ModuleType must be identical for each of the (leaf) modules.
- At least one architecture type must be common for all modules, and the merged
-module will only support the common architecture types.
- ALL modules to be merged must be in a directory structure below the location
-of the merged module.
- The package must be within a directly directory line with the merged module's
-MSA file. (Parent directories.)
- The copying of the files from the "leaf" directory into the merge module's
-directory structure must be handled by an external program.
- The merge program must be run everytime a leaf module is modified.
- The external copy program must also be run everytime a leaf module is modified.
- Two or more leaf modules must be specified.
- The merged module must be added to a package (SPD) file before it can be used.
- PCD Driver Modules cannot be merged, nor combined with other modules.
- Leaf Module Global BuildOptions and UserExtensions are not merged.
