-Configuration Data Structures
-=============================
-
-It is recommended that applications be configured using ``<rtems/confdefs.h>``
-as it is simpler and insulates applications from changes in the underlying data
-structures. However, it is sometimes important to understand the data
-structures that are automatically filled in by the configuration parameters.
-This section describes the primary configuration data structures.

-If the user wishes to see the details of a particular data structure, they are
-are advised to look at the source code. After all, that is one of the
-advantages of RTEMS.
