Static Configurator acts as a pre-processor that parses the XML descriptor
files into intermediate representation that gets linked into the main application.
This reduces the initialization time for an application that is statically
built. It is mainly aimed at RTOS' like VxWorks that lacks facilities like
shared objects or DLL.</li>
