Rockbox
240923a801
General state is: Rockbox is usable (plays music, saves configuration, touchscreen works too). Problems: - Playing music in the background (i.e. when switching to another app) doesn't work reliably, but I'm working on that now. - no cabbiev2 (only some preliminary files for it), no other default theme. - screen flickers sometimes if the updates are too frequent - no multi screen apk/package - strange behavior when a phone call comes in The java files (and the eclipse project) resides in android/, which is also supposed to be the build folder. I've put a small README in there for instructions. There are some steps needed after the make part, which are described there, and which eclipse mostly handles. But there ought to be some script/makefile rules which do that instead in the future. git-svn-id: svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk@27668 a1c6a512-1295-4272-9138-f99709370657 |

Build Your Own Rockbox
1. Check out 'rockbox' from SVN (or extract a downloaded archive).
$ svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox
or
$ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2
2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.
$ cd rockbox
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/
$ which sh-elf-gcc
$ which perl
4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
Archos.
$ ../tools/configure
5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.
6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.
$ make
$ make zip
7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
*smile*.
If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:
$ mkdir build-fmrecorder
$ cd build-fmrecorder
$ ../tools/configure
$ mkdir build-player
$ cd build-player
$ ../tools/configure
