Goal
Get down to a bite-size chunk of TI examples from the myriad of examples present.
Procedure
Compiling the TI examples outside of ~/dvsdk
See the my prior post "OMAP DVSDK on OpenEmbedded" in the dvsdk category for getting working the EVM examples working on the Gumstix Overo.
cp -a ~/dvsdk/dvsdk_3_01_00_10/codec_engine_2_25_02_11/examples/ ~/ti-examples
cd ~/ti-examples
vim xdcpaths.mak
Here's an example using the changes I made:
diff --git examples/xdcpaths.mak examples-pruned/xdcpaths.mak
index 38b5fac..9eb3a8c 100644

I tested that I could make clean && make and it worked. Amazaing!
Compiling fewer of the TI examples
cp -a ~/ti-examples ~/ti-examples-pruned
vim ~/ti-examples-pruned/makefile
The interesting parts of the top-level examples folder are buried 4 levels deep.
./ti/sdo/ce/examplesappscodecsservers
I decided (rather arbitrarily) that I'm just interested in video_copy and all_codecs_new_config, so I deleted everything not related and kept making adjustments to makefiles, package.xdcs, and all_codecs_new_config/all.cfg until it compiled.
I also got rid of
- all of the platforms in
./apps/video_copy/configuro/and.tcis excepting theevm3530, which is closest to the gumstix. - all of the
packagefolders
I may go back and try to get audio_copy and server_api_example as well.
Creating my own package
After trimming the fat from the file system I decided to lighten the directory structure as well and work towards getting my own project built.
mkdir -p ./faster-examples
cp -a ti-examples-pruned/ti/sdo/ce/examples/ ./fastr-examples/fastr_ce
cp ti-examples-pruned/makefile ./fastr-examples/
cp ti-examples-pruned/xdcpaths.mak ./fastr-examples/
cp ti-examples-pruned/config.bld ./fastr-examples/
cp ti-examples-pruned/buildutils/xdcrules.mak ./fastr-examples-extracted/buildutils/
OLD='ti.sdo.ce.examples'
NEW='fastr_ce'
find ./ -type f | grep -v '.svn' | xargs sed -i "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/gi"
And I made a makefile for the top-level:
./faster-examples/makefile
all:
%::
$(MAKE) -C fastr_ce $@
./faster-examples/makefile
all:
%::
$(MAKE) -C codecs $@
$(MAKE) -C servers $@
$(MAKE) -C apps $@
Again, I had to muck around a bit with the makefiles - particularly having the right number of parent paths ../../...
Creating my own Codec Engine app
cd ~/fastr-examples
OLD='all_codecs_new_config'
NEW='fsr_codecs'
find ./ -type f | grep -v '.svn' | xargs sed -i "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/gi"
mv fastr_ce/all_codecs_new_config fastr_ce/fsr_codecs
cd ~/fastr-examples
OLD='all_codecs_new_config'
NEW='fastr_codecs'
find ./ -type f | grep -v '.svn' | xargs sed -i "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/gi"
cd ~/fastr-examples/fastr_ce/apps

vim makefile # add `fodec` - the fastr codec
