Component Designer Question -One INF many devices-

I was making a component for my Logitech Dongle that came with my MX
Revolution Mouse. Since it only needed two files, I started making my own
component for it. Then I thought I'd cheat and use the oem25.inf and import
that. The trouble is that one oem25.inf supports 28 different mouse related
devices.

What is the *Best* practice method for supporting all these devices?

Is this where a "repository set" comes into play?

I've noticed that most if not all of the 28 devices all use the same 5 files.

I'm trying to learn the most efficient methods for build device support so I
don't have thousands of little components and repositories.

Any thoughts? Most appreciated.
 
Dear BlueMonkey,

How about creating a component with a specified name, Ex. Logitech
Dongle Mouse?

In this component, you should include all files.

When you build your image, you just need to include this component.

In FBA or H/W detect process, XPE will auto find suitable driver for it.
