+Brief Usage for PcdSyntax Update:
+Usage:
+ PcdSyntaxUpdate.exe <directory_name>
+It searches all INF, DEC and DSC file under <directory_name> and update them with the following rules:
+1. Update INF files to conform to INF spec 0.44:
+ a. Rename PCD section name: e.g. [PcdsFeatureFlag] -> [FeaturePcd]
+ b. Adjust PCD section item format: e.g. PcdDebugClearMemoryValue|gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid -> gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdDebugClearMemoryValue
+ c. Update the syntax of binary INF file (not PCD related)
+2. Update DEC files to confirm to DEC spec 0.36
+ Adjust PCD section item format: e.g. PcdWinNtPhysicalDisk|0x00001000|gEfiNt32PkgTokenSpaceGuid|VOID*|L"E:RW;245760;512"-> gEfiNt32PkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdWinNtFlashFvRecoverySize|0x0|UINT32|0x00001011
+3. Update DSC files to confirm to DSC spec
+ a. Adjust string/array typed PCD item format: e.g. PcdWinNtMemorySizeForSecMain|gEfiNt32PkgTokenSpaceGuid|L"64!64"|12 -> gEfiNt32PkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdWinNtMemorySizeForSecMain|L"64!64"|VOID*|12
+ b. Adjust non-string/array typed PCD item format: e.g. PcdWinNtBootMode|gEfiNt32PkgTokenSpaceGuid|1 -> gEfiNt32PkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdWinNtBootMode|1
+ c. Update the override library class in [Components] section: e.g.
+ <LibraryClass> {
+ PcdLib|MdePkg/Library/BasePcdLibNull/BasePcdLibNull.inf
+ }
+ To
+ <LibraryClasses> {
+ PcdLib|MdePkg/Library/BasePcdLibNull/BasePcdLibNull.inf
+ }
