Notes related to git compilation:
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you retrieved the libusbx repository from git and are using a gcc based
|
|
toolchain, be mindful that you should have the autotools installed (autoconf,
|
|
automake) and will need to run either ./autogen.sh or ./bootstrap.sh to produce
|
|
the configure file.
|
|
|
|
The difference between autogen.sh and bootstrap.sh is that the former invokes
|
|
configure with a default set of options, and will therefore generate a Makefile,
|
|
whereas the latter does not invoke configure at all. If using autogen.sh, note
|
|
that you can also append options, that will be passed as is to configure.

Notes related to submitting new developments:
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you submit a new development to libusbx (eg: new backend), that is unlikely
|
|
to fit in a couple of small patches, we would kindly suggest that you create a
|
|
public account on github, if you don't have one already, and then fork a new
|
|
libsubx repository under this account from https://github.com/libusbx/libusbx.
|
|
|
|
Then you can create a git branch for your work, that we will be able to better
|
|
reference and test.
|
|
|
|
We also suggest that, if you are planning to bring in a large development, you
|
|
try to involve the libusbx community early by letting the mailing list know, as
|
|
you may find that other people might be eager to help you out.
|
|
See https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libusbx-devel for details on
|
|
how to join the mailing list. |
