>From a purely pragmatic perspective, I would act exactly like you describe above. I'm not saying that this is the cleanest design, or that it has the best performance. However, it also does not introduce technical debt -- it's not a "wrong" thing to do --, and (from past experience) keeping it 100% in platform code produces the least amount of friction, and allows for the smoothest development. Extending UefiBootManagerLib has always been an uphill battle. Thanks Laszlo -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
