Generate images for use with a debugger

If this option is turned on debug information is included in the generated image. 

Generate images for use with profiler

If this option is turned on a profiler will be able to load the generated image. 

Minimise the native image dependencies that are generated

If this option is turned on the native image will be generated with a minimum of dependencies.  This is not recommended because non-native dependencies will cause the Just In Time compiler to be invoked, negating the benefits of Native Images.

Configuration

Configure using executable assembly

The assembly configuration can be taken from an executable configuration.  This allows NGen to get a better idea as to what dependencies would be loaded by the assembly.

Configure using appbase directory

Image Added

The directory to use as the application base when locating dependencies for the supplied assembly.

Includes the maximum amount of information while generating the native assembly. Useful for debugging issues with the action, does slow down generation however. Therefore we recommend turning this off during normal script runs.

Framework Version

Use default Framework version (vX.X) / Use vX.X

Allows the selection of the .NET version to use for the tool. The minimum is .NET v2.0.

Use 64-bit tools

This options specifies as whether to force the usage of 64-bit tools on a 64-bit system or not.  As FinalBuilder is currently a 32-bit application it will default to running the 32-bit version on a 64-bit system.  Check this option if you require the 64-bit version to be run.
