Basically, After adding any files, We just need to make some entries in these two files: configure.ac and Makefile.am files. autoheader, autoconf and automake are the tools used when you execute autoreconf command. It generate config.h.in, Makefile. in and that configure script and When you execute configure script, you get config.h and Makefile. Take a look at page no 26 of this file. https://elinux.org/images/4/43/Petazzoni.pdf _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@rtems.org http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
