Abner:
  You can use FeaturePcdGet() in source code to switch code logic. Although 
such logic is not trimmed in preprocessor, it can be optimized in link phase by 
the smart compiler.

Thanks

The workaround I have been using for this 'limitation' is I replaced the 
FeaturePcd by PcdUint32 ...

Subject: [edk2-buildtools] FeaturePcd for the preprocessor

Hi Buildtools-devel,
First, I am not sure whether or not the topic I would like to talk had been 
discussed before

FeaturePcd is used for the different code path. However, in many cases, we use 
the predefined macro for the different code for the different purpose.
The difference between these two cases is the different code path is not 
involved in the build.
For the FeaturePcd, build tool generates the declaration as below sample,
#define _PCD_VALUE_PcdAcTest  ((BOOLEAN)0U)

Can we have the additional one just like, "#define 
_PCD_VALUE_CONDITIONAL_PcdAcTest 0"? With this, we can use #if #else in the 
source code for the different purpose.
Thanks
Abner
