Re: [Ltib] Attempting to automate multi-platform building...

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Peter,

I have a nightly builder I run.  Also there's the scripts in CVS under bin:

My crontab has all one line (note lines get wrapped by my email client):

# run at 18:01 Mon-Fri
01 18 * * 1-5 (cd /home/seh/ltib ; ./autobuild_ltib -c -P 
config/profile/max.config 2>&1 )

The autobuild_lib is in the bin directory so what I have is:

/home/seh/ltib/ with a bunch of checked-out LTIBs re-named per platform, 
for example: ep93xx, imx31adsm ....

I then copy from one of these bin/autobuild_ltib to /home/seh/ltib so 
the cron job runs.

For each of these instances I prime it first by manually building it by 
hand and selecting the platform configuration.

If you look at ./autobuild_ltib it will pull a CVS update each run and 
it also generates some html summary tables (see attached).

You could use one directory and override it with:
./ltib --preconfig config/platform/_target_/defconfig --profile 
config/profile/max.config

But the problem is that if you do this you can't have more than one state.

NOTE: if you do switch platforms, in between you must do:
./ltib -m distclean

Regards, Stuart
