Patent attributes
Technologies are disclosed herein for identifying and resolving firmware component dependencies within a firmware project. Dependency information is generated and stored for firmware components that can be used to create a firmware project. The dependency information may define one or more mandatory dependencies, optional dependencies, and/or incompatible dependencies. The dependency information for the firmware components in the firmware project is evaluated to identify any unsatisfied dependencies when a firmware project is opened, when a firmware component is added to a firmware project, when a firmware component in a firmware project is updated, or when the firmware project is built. If any unsatisfied dependencies are identified, the dependencies can be satisfied by adding a firmware component to the firmware project, updating a firmware component in the firmware project, or by removing a firmware component from the firmware project.
