Hello, I was trying to build rtems for lm3s6965 bsp when i made a mistake on the name of the bsp at --enable-rtemsbsp flag. Suprisely i did not get an error Of course i did't get the well known 'make all' will build the following BSPslm3s6965 either. Even later when i did make, no error message popped up.
I agree this is rather unhelpful.
Is there a reason for not stopping the configure script and alert the user about the error? In other words, should rtems configure script notice the user made a mistake and prompt an error message?
I suspect no one has looked into it. If you know autoconf and automake and you are able to find a solution please post a patch.
The complexity as I see it is the initial configure phase does not check the BSP list and the configure is spread across the initial configure and further nested configures in the make phases so when do you check. To check for the BSP you would need to check for a valid .cfg file in the correct arch. Maybe the rtems-bsps script could provide some hints.
FYI there is an active project at the moment to move to a waf build system for RTEMS. The plan is to release 4.12 and then switch the master branch to waf.
