Thanks Brian,

Could you let me know what do you mean context please? Show a sample? I am interested to learn how this file is used later during compile/link process.
regards,
George

You seemed to be asking why the build system you're inspecting was
creating these ListDef files that contain preprocessor definitions.
It's not obvious what the reason for doing that is, based only on those
two commands -- you would have to look at the context of how the ListDef
file is later used by that build system to know its purpose.
