Create rejection file from dry runs?
« on: October 29, 2006, 03:09:16 PM »
Hi.

Couple of questions.

1) Is there a way to have the rejection file be created when doing a dry run to list HUNK errors? I ask because if I apply the patch then do the -R then try again, it gives a different HUNK error. It seems the -R doesnt work very well. Its really annoying. The rejection file only seems to be made when I actually apply the patch. Not very useful.

2) I have the cross-compiler installed (debian vmware on XP), how do I make a simulator for XP from debian?

Thanks.

1) I'm not sure you can do that.

2) You don't. You build the simulator for Debian.

Shame. Would be much more useful.

Oh. I thought installing the cross-compiler with rockboxdev.sh allowed you to build for other platforms.

Other platforms == Ipod, Irivier, etc.  The UI sim doesn't run under Windows, unless you've got cygwin installed, and in that case it needs to be compiled under cygwin to use it's .dlls IIRC.

I see. So whats the point of the rockboxdev.sh script? How come i could compile and build for any platform fine before . I followed this (http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=4689.0) tutorial installing debian on xp, did it automatically run that script?

rockboxdev.sh builds the cross-compilers that compile rockbox to run on the targets (archos, iriver, ipod, etc). These cross-compilers come pre-built in the Debian vmware image, so no need to run the script.

wish Id known that beforehand. How can I 'uninstall' what the rockboxdev.sh has done or is it too 'built in' now?

You could delete the cross compilers. However, if you do that, you won't be able to build Rockbox at all.

Guess Ill have to uninstall vmware and start again.  :-\

Anything I should be aware of? Is it just a simple case of uninstalling the VMWare Player and the 7-Zip 4.42 in XP?

Why do you want to do this?

If you want a clean debian image, just delete the folder where you extracted the current one, and redownload and extract it (assuming you don't have the original .7z file around still).

You don't need to reinstall anything else.

Llorean: Do you mean delete the vmware folder which has a .nvram, .vmx and a couple of .vmdk files in?

Because I want to go back to how it was before I ran the rockboxdev.sh script. Its using up too much space on the drive and its changed the configuration slightly. Whenever I compile it keeps asking me to recommend upgrading the gcc.

It should be recommending you upgrade Make, not GCC...

Does rerunning the script even change anything?

It's possible it coudl overwrite your versions of the GCC crosscompilers with slightly different versions (the Debian image is older than the script, I *think* but I'm not sure) but it shouldn't introduce any new error messages.

The message regarding outdated Make occurs on the debian VMWare image no matter what right now, as it includes Make v 3.80
