Well, that would work, but it would be rather ugly. As far as I have seen with XDC so far, third-party packages are basically a closed unit which the integrator is not supposed to modify. So, I don't like this because (A) I need to touch files that conceptually should not be touched by me, (B) the codec package becomes unusable as a self contained unit - any project using it must manually add the relevant lines to the link.cmd file, (C) I need to do this manual process every time the third party releases a new version of the codec, and (D) I need to do an extra manual process every time I add or remove a codec from my project. I understand that this is might be the only way to accomplish this, but I'm surprised at TI for going to such great lengths to make everything self-contained, nice and automatic (see the wiki page I linked to in my original post to see the effort done to make the job trivial for the integrator) but leaving this whole issue kind of half-baked. -itay -- Itay Chamiel Software Engineer Mango DSP itayc at mangodsp.com _______________________________________________ Davinci-linux-open-source mailing list [email protected] http://linux.davincidsp.com/mailman/listinfo/davinci-linux-open-source
