How To Find Which Component Contains A Given File?

[Guest]

Is there a utility, or perhaps a well-hidden feature of Target Designer, that can tell me which component(s) contains a given file? Of course I can read the Files list of each component one at a time until I find my file, but there's got to be an easier way!

Dear Theophilus,

Use "Filter Manager".

Tiils -> Filter Manager -> New -> "Filter Rules" Select "Component
contains the following file"

And filled your file name in the "Filter description".


If you can't find any component, try to lower the Visibility.

And just to add to that...

There is XPeTools/DependencyExplorer component on www.xpefiles.com
(Development Utilities/Main folder) that has a filtering feature. You just
type the name of the file and it gives you a list of components which
contains the file (or files with names containing the given name). This may
be helpful for a quick search (no need to create a filter).

Sorry, then i really did see his question properly. I saw the error and when it matched to that of mine, i assumed the rest.

But my problem is for 'EWF for RAM' only. After our last Q&A session a few days back, I got all your QFEs (And also many more). And also didnt use EWF comp. Everything as your notes suggests. But then i got that error. Anyway ,I never mean to say your component is not working. I only thought that this person is facing the same problem so i suggested a work around for that error alone

Are you sure that this is correct thread?

Anyhow try removing my component and adding MS EWF component.
Try to make a build, and see if there is an same error.

If there is not then remove MS component, and add my component again to
project.
Also try removing and adding again to project component "Class Installer -
Storage volumes"

I don't know what else to suggest.
