Please do not do this. I am reluctant to again head down the path of <br>
exposing the internals of the rtems.git build system to users via <br>
examples. It says to our users they need to use this approach to <br>
building RTEMS applications and that is not the case. It also removes <br>
the need for us to make sure we correctly handle exporting the needed <br>
build data for a BSP. I like the current separation.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Understood. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
I prefer the examples are just that, an example of code to use and how <br>
to build an application with different build systems. I welcome support <br>
for other build systems being added to our examples. It just needs <br>
someone to maintain whatever is added.<br>
<br>
The rtems_waf approach is based on the currently exported data and when <br>
a new build system is agreed on and merged it will be updated.<br>
