Troubleshooting the OAL Cache Test (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
When using Windows Embedded CE, The OAL Cache Tests require a run-time image built from an operating system design using the minimum possible number of SYSGENs, as specified in Prerequisites for the OAL Cache Test.
If a test case that calls the CeGetCacheInfo function passes but the cache size seems incorrect, investigate further. The CeGetCacheInfo function might return incorrect information because this function queries constants in the OAL. If the CeGetCacheInfo function returns incorrect information, test cases might fail.
If a test case fails because it cannot allocate memory, reduce the array length or free memory on the target device. Each test case allocates a contiguous chunk of memory and fails if a contiguous chunk of memory is not allocated.
Best Practices for the OAL General Cache Test describes Best Practices that can resolve some troubleshooting situations.
