Re: [gccsdk] Autobuilder query

Hi Alan

I have succeeded in setting the command in the AB_DISTCLEAN variable.

Perhaps the system should permit override on all the routines that are in the build-program script??

Not urgent though.. I managed to get all the code I would have used into one long line....

Thanks, and Cheers

John

In a thing I'm working on has the main build dir in a subdir of its source tree.

It does a make and make install  something like (cd $myblddir; $AB_MAKE)

However, whilst it appears that ab_make() and ab_package() can be overridden
in the setvars file, I don't seem to be able to override the ab_distclean() function?..

Should I be able to, or, does the autobuilder build-program script need amending to permit this?

I've had a look at the code in build-program this weekend and there isn't an ab_distclean
overidable function. Instead it does an eval $AB_DISTCLEAN so you would need to set
the AB_DISTCLEAN variable to the command required to do the clean.

I'm not sure why the distclean didn't follow the same pattern as the others.

Would you be able to set a command in AB_DISTCLEAN for your project?
If not, then I will have a look at what's required to modify build-program to
provide an ab_distclean override.

Regards,
Alan
