I split my module into one module containing the .asl file, and a second module containing .c source files. However I could not find a way to describe a dependency between the two modules (as suggested in the second step). This part of Bob's answer makes me think it's not possible using current edk2 build system: > That step cannot be handled in edk2 build since the compilation command use > different build option, so it’s done in a pre-build script. I will have to reproduce the solution to multiple folders and for multiple platforms. Using a pre-build script would not be a scalable solution. I would need to create a dependency between file extensions (or between modules which are edk2 library classes) using the build system. Would you have an idea of how to do it, or if this is currently not possible and this implies modification in the build system, is there a way I could help?
