Re: difference between active / enabled components?

hello,

I have a general question regarding the difference between an active and enabled option/components.

I have checked that there is a define for every option that is both active and enabled otherwise no define is created in the headers.

So what is the use of having both of them? Is it just for cosmetic reasons in configtools?

It's all about inferences; active - the option is "turned on", i.e. will affect the build enabled - the prerequisites for the item are active, so this item can be activated if desired
