| ## Feature Introduction |
| Structure PCD is to support the same C structure/Enum/Macro definition in PCD and VFR, and specify the value for individual |
| fields in a VOID* PCD in DEC/DSC/FDF/CL. It includes the group of the sub features. |

| |
| https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=542 [BaseTools] Structure PCD value assignment in DEC/DSC |
| The first version POC has been added to support FixedAtBuild and Patchable StructurePcd value assignment in dec and dsc file. |
| TestPkg DEC/DSC and Application shows StructurePcd declaration, value assignment and consumed in source code. |
| TestPkg TestApp can directly be built with build command. |
| POC has been updated to support DynamicPcd/DynamicExPcd. |
| TestPkg DSC/FDF are updated to include NT32 emualtion platform. |
| TestPkg TestApp are updated to consume structure PCD with all types. |
| POC has been updated to support PCD when more than one SkuId. |
| TestPkg.dsc adds two SKUIDs cases. |

| ### NOTES |
| Some changes in this branch are in BaseTools. To apply them, user needs to run BaseTools from sources. |
| In Linux, BaseTools run from source. In Windows, BaseTools can run from source. The step is like below: |
| cd edk2 |
| set PYTHON_HOME=C:\Python27 |
| edksetup.bat --nt32 |
| nmake -f BaseTools\Makefile |
| build -p TestPkg\TestPkg.dsc -y Report.txt |
| build -p TestPkg\TestPkg.dsc run # trig NT32 platform, and show dynamic PCD. |
