RES: RTEMS boostrap | Selective bootstrap

[Wendell Pereira da Silva]

Ralf and Sebastian.

The motivation for speed up bootstrap is an implementation of a kind of continuous integration process (I'm using Jenkins (http://jenkins-ci.org) by the way), on CentOS 6 as a server. One of its procedure is to capture all the software dependencies (RTEMS / BSP / Libs, etc) from scratch and from official sources to track the stability of the build and test execution in many configurations over time.

Thank you very much for the hints you provided, and then redefine "from scratch" in my case :-)

MinGW, I presume? Use a different OS, and you'll experience a huge difference in speed.

And even this redundant.

Just run a full bootstrap once (Or keep the autotool generated files in git - Unfortunately, git like CVS does not preserve timestamps) and "configure --enable-maintainer-mode".

This way you rarely need to run bootstrap ever.
