android Added NODEPS define to skip recompilation for zip and apk builds. Usage: make zip NODEPS=1 2011-06-22 14:14:49 +00:00
apps Do some adjustments to alleviate IRAM congestion on some targets from r30097. Include removing pointless IRAM declarations in pcmbuf.c because that callback code runs at a fairly relaxed pace. M5 is still the biggest problem. 2011-06-29 09:39:13 +00:00
backdrops Add missing cabbiev2 800x480 backdrop 2011-02-19 01:45:08 +00:00
bootloader Optional dual-boot support in iAudio X5 and M5 bootloader, based on FS#5289. 2011-06-19 17:23:18 +00:00
debian Forgot to update the short log for (unofficial) maemo build 2011-06-28 18:01:29 +00:00
docs Submit first part of FS#12154. Whitespace removal and correction of several defines in WM8758 driver according to data sheet, no functional change. Thanks to Seheon Ryu. 2011-06-20 18:37:51 +00:00
firmware Get M5 building again by moving the downmix buffer out of IRAM for now. Everything should still work. It doesn't have any apparently measurable effect on pure playback CPU usage as seen from the buffering thread screen compared to earlier tests on the same file. 2011-06-29 13:43:47 +00:00
flash Move memset6() declaration to string-extra.h, kills a warning compiling for android since it ships a memory.h. 2010-08-12 13:55:01 +00:00
fonts Remove superfluous executable bits on a bunch of files. 2011-06-08 14:22:03 +00:00
gdb
icons Add script to create iconset (FS#11982). 2011-05-31 21:08:29 +00:00
lib Fix further 'variable set but not used' warnings reported from GCC 4.6.0. 2011-05-01 13:48:28 +00:00

rbutil Rockbox Utility: fix proxy password getting lost (FS#12166). 2011-06-25 17:21:06 +00:00

uisimulator Dircache: Don't expose struct dircache_entry and pointers into the cache, use IDs instead. 2011-06-20 20:12:42 +00:00

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
