Next, you must build the DLL containing the resource. A DLL is generated that will be used in Updating the SPI.INI File to update the SPI.INI profile. The DLL is built by entering the following command:

NMAKE /F MAKERES.MAK

The following example shows a sample makefile (MAKERES.MAK), which is used to build the TESTRES.DLL containing the resource shown in the previous example. (See Creating a Resource File.)
