The way the Rockbox code works, you do NOT build in the source directories.
Instead, you create a empty directory at the same level as the other Rockbox dirs (like "apps"). Then, you go into that empty directory and do a "../tools/configure" which will create a makefile depending on how you answer the questions. Then you do a "make". The advantage of this is that you can have several configurations of builds all using the same "untouched" source files. I don't think anything ever gets written into the source tree. Hope this helps. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anton Romanov" To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, April 06, 2006 10:05 PM Subject: Re: make clean > On Thu, 6 Apr 2006 15:50:29 -0500 > Brandon Low wrote: > > > Your build dir should absolutely never be a parent or the same as your > > source dir.
