Sony NWZ-E370/E380 Plugins
nils.stec:
Hi,
I installed rockbox but i don't have any plugins on my NWZ E384. After i searched a lot and read that this port has no plugins i thought no plugins have been written for it and tried to write one.
I went through "How to write plugins..." step by step but after creating apps/plugins/xxxx.c and adding it to SOURCES and categories in the same folder i wonder where to say make and make install. in the apps/plugins/ folder there is no Makefile and in my build-nwz-e384 folder it does not compile xxxx.c
Is rockbox something missing to support plugins on this player or am I doing something wrong?
saratoga:
Plugins are built with the rest of rockbox, not as discrete programs, so you run make in your normal rockbox build directory, not in the source tree.
However, plugins are not enabled for the Sony players yet AFAIK, so you won't be able to compile them for your player (at least not without hacking up the code a bit to work around none of the other plugins building). You can however run them in the UI simulator.

First, thank you for your answer, Second, why are plugins not yet enabled? Is something misssing? What do i have to do to get rockbox support modules on my Sony?
saratoga:
Plugins have to be ported to new devices due to different buttons (and sometimes screen sizes), so most likely they won't compile at the moment.

I don't ask about existing plugins, but this answers some questions, but not why my simple Hello-World Plugin is not compiling.
