  • Automatic minimal build dependency determination and building an executable with source code
    Patent number: 7818730
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for building an executable using only the necessary source modules or a reduced set of source modules. The complete list of necessary source modules can be determined by checking for dependency of any already identified necessary source modules. Hence, if any of the source modules belongs to a library, the entire library will not need to be compiled in order to use any necessary source module to build the executable. The present invention has the advantage that the executable takes shorter time to build and the executable is smaller in memory size so that it is easier to be ported to a target system. The present invention may also be used to minimize or reduce the memory needed to load a model so that only the elements/blocks that are used in the model are loaded into memory when a model loads.
