Rockbox Daily Builds
« on: April 17, 2016, 04:08:21 AM »
Hi

Could someone advise how this works. From what I can tell, packages are built daily (automatically) and those with the same rev version have nothing added/changed. If the rev version changes (for example, http://www.rockbox.org/dl.cgi?bin=sansaclipv2), does that mean if another model has a feature added, all are set to match that rev version. What I'm trying to say is, if I download the latest build, is it likely that nothing has changed for my particular model?

If revision same - no code changes, no new feature or bug fix.
If we add some changes to code revision changes and building farm automatically built new packages for all players.
Building farm don't know for which players we do changes so rebuilt for all. Even developer sometime not sure how many players will be affected by his changes :)

So do changes for the Sansa player only also apply to the Apple, Archos, etc products? I can understand the Rockbox code applying to all players but isn't hardware specific code a little risky?

We rebuild on every code change.  Most code effects most devices, but some is device specific.
