We could copy the wscript of the new build system to the examples and add a couple of specification items. Building test programs is really not that much different to building applications.Just to make sure I understood correctly: Do you suggest that we replace the rtems_waf in examples with the wscript similar to the new build system?
Please do not do this. I am reluctant to again head down the path of exposing the internals of the rtems.git build system to users via examples. It says to our users they need to use this approach to building RTEMS applications and that is not the case. It also removes the need for us to make sure we correctly handle exporting the needed build data for a BSP. I like the current separation.
I prefer the examples are just that, an example of code to use and how to build an application with different build systems. I welcome support for other build systems being added to our examples. It just needs someone to maintain whatever is added.
The rtems_waf approach is based on the currently exported data and when a new build system is agreed on and merged it will be updated.
