[livesupport-dev] installation guidelines - Airtime Development Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

import

I've committed a new document about component installation guidelines,
see here:

http://code.campware.org/projects/livesupport/file/trunk/livesupport/doc/developmentEnvironment/installation.html?rev=1686&format=raw

please also see an updated version of the development environment:

http://code.campware.org/projects/livesupport/file/trunk/livesupport/doc/developmentEnvironment/buildEnvironment.html?rev=1686&format=raw

following the above guidelines, it would be easy to create packages.
unfortunately currently the installation process is quite messed up for
all the LS components. please read the above documents, and comment on it..

(sorry, it's not my best day, so the quality of the document is not as
good as I wanted to...)

import

Akos,

avoid using hard-codet references to other components, I would need to know about install paths for exaple storageServer. Which is common way to obtain this information during install?

Thanks,
Sebastian

via configure script flags (like --with-storage-server=/here/or/there )

import

How do I get this variable into the Makefile?
Tryed to use STORAGE_SERVER = @storage-server@, but this will not parsed.

see the AC_ARG_WITH macro for autoconf:

http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.57/html_node/autoconf_130.html

this is how you create a --with-XXX command line option for the
configure script

then see the AC_SUBST:

http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.57/html_node/autoconf_83.html

only those variables are substitued in the makefile, that are declared
by AC_SUBST

so, if you've set a variable STORAGE_SERVER in configure.ac, then also
put there:

AC_SUBST(STORAGE_SERVER)

then, in Makefile.in, all @STORAGE_SERVER@ instances will be substituted
to the variable set at the configure script.

Howdy, Stranger!
