Sergey -
Yes, it is easy to exclude an INF in the DSC file. But I don't want two INFs
(one for build with certain strings and one for build without certain strings)
for a single EXE.

Anyone have advice on removing string references/text from a build based on
build switches?
1. As far as I can tell, conditionals are not allowed in .uni files.
2. As far as I can tell, conditionals are ignored when StrGather.py looks
for STRING_TOKEN (STRING_TOKEN in // or #if 0 are still recognized)
3. FeatureFlag PCDs can't control source files in an INF, so you can't
exclude the .uni from the build.
So, even though strings are never used, they are always included. Yes, I
realize that there are cases need to force the strings into the build by
placing references in comments (a better way must be available surely, perhaps
in the .uni file itself)
The best I've been able to come up with is to create two separate INF files:
one with the .uni files and one without.
Thoughts?
