Compiling and making apps/games/plugins for SansaRB (SDK?)

(1/1)

jamwaffles:
Can anyone help me as to how i'd go about making some sort of app (.rock) with an SDK if there is one, or in just plain C++ for the Sansa e260 rockbox version please?

thanks in advance

James

AlexP:
Rockbox is written in plain C.

See the For Developers section of the wiki.

saratoga:
Plugins are compiled into the OS when you build rockbox.  Thus there isn't a separate SDK, you just call OS functions as needed and the linker takes care of everything at build time.

If you want to build applications, checkout the rockbox source code from SVN, and then take a look at apps/plugins, and the associated wiki pages in the developers index.

jamwaffles:
Thankyou very much. I'll have a look around and see what i can do - it looks reasonably easy and i program for PIC in C, so optimizing and shrinking code is already quite easy
