00:04:29Stephen_darkham, seriously tho i think people nearly have recording working so that to me would be sorta new
00:05:35darkhami'm only a little bit (but ever... :) ) curious of what's new on rockbox's develop on the fuze...
00:06:36darkhamfrom the time i installed it in my fuze, i became a rockbox fanatic
00:07:12darkhami've almost all the original battery life , on rockbox too
00:07:37darkhama little bit less, but i play almost only flac files, from sd cards

00:16:09darkhamare archos av3xx series planned for a new port?
00:18:05krazykitno ports are planned
00:18:27krazykitinterested owners who do the hard work of porting get things done. as it's done in people's free time, there can't really be any timelines, either
00:19:35darkhamright..
00:20:36krazykitthere may be information about the device on the wiki or the forums, if any effort has been started. the NewPort wiki page is a good place to start if you're interested in at least compiling information about it

00:29:16webguest10hi, what is the displayresolution of the mini2440 touchscreen
00:29:28Bob_C240x320
00:29:32 Quit fildi (Remote closed the connection)
00:30:22 Quit bubsy (Client Quit)
00:31:24webguest10with rockbox or in general, as the friendlyarm site tells: Max: 1024x768 do I miss something? or is this when you attach another display?
00:31:43linuxstbIsn't there also a 7" 800x480 touchscreen available?
00:33:41Bob_CCurrently we support the 3.5 inch screen, other screeens are available. 1024x768 is probably the VGA adaptor
00:34:18webguest10which will not be supported i guess :D
00:34:51Bob_Cthere is no particular reason why not, it just needs someone to write some code :)
00:34:57webguest10ok thanks
00:35:44darkhamlinuxstb, yes, it seems it's alive
00:37:14webguest10how are buttons realized with the mini2440?
00:39:03Bob_Cthere are 6 buttons on the board, but they are not very useful, the touch screen is probably more useful
00:39:29Bob_Cif you have a hardware skills, you could make an external keypad.
00:40:48webguest10yes thats what I would want to know, where to attach and how to register in rockbox
00:41:23webguest10is this offtopic? i can head over to the lyre forum
00:41:41Bob_Cwhen I have time I will try to put up a schematic
00:43:27webguest10would be nice, thanks:)
00:44:31Bob_Cbasically there is a 34 way GPIO header on the mini2440, and push switches short GPIO to ground. The current s/w supports 8 buttons

00:46:14axionixhi, can someone tell me an affordable hard drive based player that is rockbox compatible that is still available without using ebay?
00:47:47evilnick_Baxionix: No hard-drive based players are still being produced that are supported with Rockbox
00:47:54axionixo.0
00:47:59evilnick_BHaving said that, you sometimes get lucky with refurbed players
00:48:12evilnick_BOr the odd ipod video that's unopened.

00:49:17axionixok, yeah ive been waiting for a couple years now
00:49:22axionixseems they wont make one again

00:50:37TheSevenaxionix: Flash is a far better suited storage media for portable devices
00:50:50axionixnot when you have 200gb of music :/
00:51:12TheSeventhere never were such big hdd-based players, right?
00:51:19axionixmy friend has a 120
00:51:29axionixactually its goffa from here
00:51:40TheSevenand in a few years, the average cheap flash-based player will have that much storage
00:52:09TheSevenyou know, SSDs are even attacking the PC market nowadays...
00:52:29axionixyeah i haave an SSD...not cheap. 32gb cost me $100 for a decently fast one
00:53:09Bob_CI am hoping to design a HDD player after mini2440
00:53:36TheSevenBob_C: what about using a 2TB 3.5" hdd?
00:53:50TheSeven(or probably 10TB by the time it's done)
00:54:18Bob_C3.5" is a bit big/heavy, but interface wise no different
00:54:20 Join barrywardell [0] (n=barrywar@rockbox/developer/barrywardell)
00:54:27axionixso how big of a flash based plyer could i get for say $100?
00:54:32axionixrockbox of course
00:55:33JdGordon|8GB + 16GB microSD capable..
00:55:49axionixeek

00:56:36Bob_CTheSeven: my last player took 5 years to make, so you are probably right ;)
00:57:13Bob_Caxionix: what is a usable storage size for you? I want to use FLAC as well
00:57:44TheSevenif it ever actually worked, no matter after which magnitude of time, it's great!
00:57:58axionixi'd say at the very least 40gb
00:58:17Bob_Cthats about 100 cds?
00:58:24axionixroughly
00:58:54TheSevenaxionix: you should really go for something hdd-based then
00:59:04TheSevenalthough the big ones are still quite costly
00:59:33TheSevenyou could try e.g. a 240GB-modded ipod 5.5g :-)

01:00:21 Quit AEnima1577 (Client Quit)
01:01:07Bob_Ca 40GB 1.8 HD is about £45 so thats erm, $80?
01:01:07axionixyeah, i WANT an hdd player. i'd rather pay less for mechanical than wait for new tech to go down. my NAS cant even keep up with hdd space...waiting for bigger than 2tb atm
01:02:21Bob_CI think there is a 240GB 1.8 in PATA drive, bigger ones are SATA which are more difficult to interface

01:13:08TheSevenor rather why was the build system doing things like
01:13:10TheSevenCreated Makefile

01:19:00linuxstbWhat do you mean?
01:19:36TheSevenshould we already start a port, or should we wait until we find a proper (non-ibugger) way to boot?
01:20:07TheSeventhe 4g nano is fully supported by ibugger now
01:21:10linuxstbI would say start a port - for the 4g nano at least.

01:21:42 Quit AndyIL (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
01:21:51linuxstbI guess so.
01:21:53TheSeventhis is going to be confusing once we add the 8702, which seems to be very similar to the 8720
01:22:25TheSevenand there are a few things that could even be shared with s5l8700 despite diffent base addresses
01:22:32TheSevene.g. i2c, lcd, ...
01:22:36TheSevenprobably a lot more
01:23:01linuxstbMaybe rename 8700 to 87xx then.
01:23:21TheSevenbut implementing all 4 socs in a single tree will get an #ifdef hell...
01:23:36TheSevenmaybe somehow further subdivide it for the individual differing components?
01:23:51 Quit lifeless_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
01:24:01*TheSeven thinks that s5l8700.h needs some major rework anyways

04:13:36funmanif we define a new attribute for functions only needed when booting, we can still remove it when those functions need to run more than once, should suspend/resume be implemented
04:14:05kkurbjunno, we don't currently, but I guess the only thought I had is that depending on the savings, the interference doing this might cause more hassle then it's worth if someone ever did decide to go for that feature.
04:14:11kugelI'm playing around, I'm not sure if we want that in SVN. there's also the problem that the binary is bigger now (it contains all data sections doo)
04:14:30kugelit's as big as the ram usage now
04:14:38funmankugel: NOLOAD
04:14:51kugelfunman: the init code must be loaded
04:14:55kkurbjunfunman, you need the data section defined though
04:15:00kkurbjunI mean loaded
04:15:15funmanhmm
04:15:33funmanyou need to put the .init_text section right after the last data section
04:16:14kugelmoving init code before data would not yield any saving. we could try to move the entire data at boot if the init code is right after normal code, but that may slow things down
04:16:16kkurbjunI think you would need to copy it in crt0.s and then make the no load sections re-use that space
04:16:39kkurbjunI mean, you would make the linker point the noload sections to before the init section
04:16:51kkurbjunor at the begining of it
04:17:49kugelhrm, NOLOAD data wouldn't need to be copied, right?
04:18:13kugelso directly after the last initialized data section (which is part of the binary anyway) could work
04:18:47funmankugel: see how .iram is declared, we reclaim the space after it has been copied
04:18:50kkurbjunyeah - you would need to do something similar to the iram sections
04:20:11kugelyea, it really seems to be the same actually

04:45:41JdGordonwhat do you want to do?
04:46:25JdGordonbecause the image is larger than the remotes display?
04:46:26kkurbjunwell, there is a fix_viewports function that is being called. On the mr500 the usb logo is larger than the screen
04:46:32kkurbjunyeah
04:46:44JdGordonso create a new bitmap for it :)
04:47:13kkurbjunI could fix the logo, but I wanted to make sure that I'm not masking a underlying problem, or a section of code that should have better boundary checking

04:48:19kkurbjunI guess the only sections that the user has access to define their own viewports is through the skin though which checks the bounds there
04:49:01JdGordonthere is a check in usb_Screen so it uses full screen if the bitmap is larger than the user area
04:49:39kkurbjunahh.. hmm
04:50:08kkurbjuneverything works if I comment out the logo..
04:50:27kkurbjunand the revision that made this viewportified is the one that causes the data abort
04:50:42kkurbjunhttp://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi?view=rev;revision=23269
04:51:12kkurbjununfortunately a seg fault does not happen on the sim
04:51:22JdGordonline 151 is where the fullscreen gets set
04:51:33JdGordonthis obviously assumes that the screen is big enough for the logo though
04:51:36JdGordonwhich obviously it isnt
04:52:06kkurbjunyeah, but the bitmap drawing functions I think check to make sure that the bitmap is located within the screen
04:52:13kkurbjunI'll double check that
04:53:42kkurbjunhmm, it does check, but then it adds the viewport offset afterwards :)
04:54:13 Quit bubsy ()
04:56:27kkurbjunJdGordon: what is set_defaults doing - it just returns the currently active viewport for the screen specified?
04:56:59JdGordonit is broken in svn... the discussion last week between me and kugel was to get it working correctly
04:57:27JdGordonwhat it should do is set the viewport you give it to the ui area set by a combination of the setting and statubsar skin info viewport thing
04:58:02kkurbjunI hmm
04:58:33kkurbjunthat's that mail thread?
04:58:54JdGordonyeah, and irc
04:59:11JdGordonit does that now, as long as you dont have the user setting *and* a sbs with %Vi set
04:59:14kkurbjunI have to admit I would have participated, but I have a hard time wrapping my head around this viewport stuff :-D
05:00
05:00:30kkurbjunso, what about the section that is starting on line 161?
05:00:41kkurbjunwhere it sets the title->y
05:01:02kkurbjunthat seems like it would be problematic for this setup
05:02:35kkurbjunat the moment I'm thinking that this could be somewhat fixed and prevented if the bitmap drawing function properly accounted for the viewport offset in the bounds checking
05:03:15kkurbjunallowing a negative viewport location for the title section
05:03:37JdGordonviewports must never have negative values
05:04:06kkurbjunare there other areas this would fail?
05:04:55kkurbjunone use that I could think of offhand is screen transitions where you could have one viewport sliding in and another out.. but that might not be the right way to do it...

06:18:35JdGordonthose sort of bad values should be caught before it gets that far anywya
06:18:39kkurbjunI guess it doesn't if it is going to be drawn "wrong" anyway
06:19:13kkurbjunthe problem is that if they are not it will cause some really nasty side effects that could be difficult to debug
06:19:26kkurbjunI mean I was seeing data aborts in the threading code
06:19:56kkurbjunwithout a hint that it was related to the lcd screen I might have been trying to debug the USB driver
06:20:04kkurbjunI mean the remote screen
06:23:02kkurbjunthe usb screen has bad calculations for the logo and the title, I wouldn't be supprised if other screens turn up with bad calculations for really small screens
06:24:04kkurbjunthe proper fix would be to correct the screen, but there is no way that a remote logo and a title are going to properly fit on the mr500 remote screen
06:25:44kkurbjunI thought that checks could be added to each screen definition, but it would be a catch all if you put the check in the set_viewport function

07:54:40saratogathen try to work out where all the power goes
07:55:13saratogahow hard would it be to change the main arm core to 31MHz? I think that means DBOP and IRAM change too?

08:48:34bivI have several Sansa e250 (both v1) have been running rockbox very well for months. Recently, with the current build (NOT the 3.4 release), brickmania doesn't allow play with wheel. Turning the wheel doesn't move the 'paddle' ... any ideas?
08:49:11bivwhen I change from current build back to 3.4 it works again, but then when I go to current build it ceases again. Just don't want this introduced into a general release
08:50:52bivI hadn't changed builds for a while but the past few days 'current build' it's done that. Not sure which build it started with
08:50:59JdGordonanyone want to give this a gander before I check it in?
08:51:14funmanthere have been a lot of changes to brickmania for touchscreen targets, the change might have been in there
08:51:22bivOh ok.
08:51:35kugelkkurbjun: viewport.c doesn't give negative values, and the lcd driver should do boundary checking

13:02:32amiconnA comment won't help the user
13:02:58funmanroot_menu() can't return, so app_main() neither
13:06:01funman__attribute__((noreturn)) effectively saves registers on the stack at function entry
13:06:27amiconn*erroneously*
13:06:56amiconnI know it shouldn't happen normally
13:07:25funmanI can't see a way it could happen erroneously
13:07:57funmanIf it's due to random memory corruption, the function might jump to anywhere, not specifically the caller (app_main)
13:09:08funmanthe only way I can think it would return is if the source code is modified
13:09:12Tornefunman: er, last i checked declaring a functoin as noreturn didn't actually make it optimise away the prolog/epilog unless it could statically see that it was impossible for the function to return (and if it can see that it can optimise it anyway)
13:09:13***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
13:09:19amiconnIt can happen if a developer goofs somewhere
13:09:35Tornefunman: i may be wrong but last time i fiddled, noreturn basically only affects whether you get various warnings or not :)
13:09:57amiconnThis is old code, it could probably be removed
13:10:37Tornee.g. to let you get away with writing int foo() { for(;;); }
13:10:37funmanTorne: then here attribute naked makes more sense? (to remove unneeded prolog/epilog)
13:11:40TorneHm
13:11:55Tornemanual says it does do that optimisation
13:12:11funmanit = noreturn? that's what I understand from the gcc manual too
13:12:32Torneyes. but i'm pretty sure i've seen it fail to do it :)
13:12:38Torneof course these things may both be true
13:12:53Tornenaked means something entirely different and shouldn't ever be on a C function
13:13:18Tornenaked breaks local variables, amongst other things (it removes any handling of the stack pointer, so there's no memory alloced for locals)

13:13:41funmanoh I thought it would only remove registers saving/loading
13:14:02Torneno, it kills the prolog/epilog entirely
13:14:09Torneyou can only use asm() inside a naked function
13:14:12Torneno C code at all
13:14:41Torneit's for doing asm functoins which need nonstandard prolog/epilog code without having to write a seperate .s
13:15:43kugelis -6.7K considerable for SVN, or is this too dirty?
13:16:15Torneanyway, poking around on the internet suggests that gcc is probably just not very *good* at following through on the implications of noreturn, so whether you get particular optimisations or not may be somewhat random :)
13:16:29Torneits primary purpose is to kill warnings, not enable optimisation

13:28:05funmanyes that's what I mean, on the simulator main() will initialize SDL and stuff, and then call rockbox's main() (well, app_main() )

15:16:54FlynDicesaratoga:(for the logs)re: AMS frequencies, The problem with changing the core frequency to 31MHz is the restriction that PCLK <= FCLK so we need to lower PCLK also. If we do that then the IRAM and Memory are clocked lower also and it actually make battery performance worse.

16:08:08kkurbjunkugel: so what is your take on the viewport issue.. currently none of the lcd drivers do proper bounds checking when a viewport is used
16:08:23kkurbjunthey all assume that the viewport is defined to be within the screen
16:09:05kkurbjunbut the more I think about it the more it seems like either a check when setting the viewport or clipping when drawing the viewport is appropriate especially with lua
16:09:11 Quit teru ("Quit")
16:09:57kugelkkurbjun: where's the exact failure? lcd_update_rect should check, bitmap_*[_part] too
16:10:44kkurbjunlook at lcd_bitmap_part in lcd-16bit.c
16:11:04kkurbjunit clips the bitmap with respect to x/y, but then it adds the viewport offsets in
16:11:51kkurbjunso if the viewport is negative or wider than the screen then it will draw into memory that it shouldn't be
16:12:47kkurbjunit seems to me that the logic for clipping is just broken with viewports - someone added that clipping logic in for a reason and then it was broken when viewports were added
16:13:34kkurbjunI mean, we could make the requirement that bitmaps have to be defined within the screen too, and just remove all of the clipping logic :-D
16:13:58 Join teru [0] (n=teru@KD059133112132.ppp.dion.ne.jp)
16:14:20kugelah I see
16:14:55kkurbjunbut this also means that all of the lcd drivers need to be fixed with additional logic
16:14:57kugelwell, IMO the drivers shouldn't be doing all these checks anyway, but the callers instead, but I may be the only one thinking that
16:16:03kkurbjunkugel, the concern I have is that it adds a ton of checks all over the code, and when you look at things like plugins it could cause all kinds of problems if we let people accidentally (or maliciously) overwrite areas of memory
16:16:53kkurbjunnot with lua people don't even need to compile their own plugins you could do all kinds of things to the player just with a script
16:18:20kugelyea but the checks are done repeatedly even if the viewports are properly set up (which is true for (assuming) 99% of the core)
16:20:14kkurbjunwps's might not have the bitmaps setup properly without any clippnig though, what if the viewport is properly defined and the bitmap they are using is wider than the viewport
16:20:51kkurbjunthat is currently taken care of, but why neglect the viewport definitions if we're already doing clipping

16:22:38kugelthe wps checks
16:22:54kugelI'm not saying the checks shouldn't be done at all, but transfered to the caller
16:23:05kkurbjunwhere does the wps check?
16:23:44kugelI don't think the wps checks if the images are wider than the vp currently
16:23:53kkurbjunso the wps should do all the clipping?

16:24:27kugelI'd be in favor of that yes
16:24:42mcuelenaerecan't we just expose "checked" calls to plugins and "unchecked" (aka performance-related) calls to core-only?
16:24:43kugelbut that's just me, I'm not really proposing the change the whole system
16:25:33kkurbjunI think clipping at the driver adds a small impact that is worth it for simplicity all over the code base
16:25:51kkurbjunplus sanity checking against user created input
16:25:56mcuelenaereI disagree, drivers should be as fast as possible
16:26:04*gevaerts really thinks that viewport clipping should be done by the "system", not the caller
16:26:15mcuelenaerealso isn't there some kind of unwritten rule Rockbox shouldn't have much defensive code?
16:29:16kkurbjuncurrently I'm planning on implementing clipping at the driver with a macro that can be called in each instance - if someone wants to run fast and dirty they can disable it, but I think if you pull clipping all together it will cause more complexity and problems than it's worth
16:30:21Bob_C_Fast is good, but not crashing is better imho
16:30:56kugelkkurbjun: remember we have a new "no code in macros" rule (I don't like it)
16:31:10kkurbjunplus these functions have loops that are much larger than the checks that are present

18:56:04bertrikCan we use real names in the commit messages?
18:56:30FlynDiceor for PCLK=mpmc_clk/2 I meant
18:56:32bertrikI'm seeing some commits attributed to 'myself' lately and I think that's a bad idea
18:57:14saratogaFlynDice: do you think its a problem with DBOP or more general?
18:58:05saratogagiven the poor performance of the IRAM on AMS, running fclk at 31Mhz and dram at 62 MHz might save a good bit of power while still performing acceptably, assuming we ever figured out how to use it
18:58:51FlynDiceI don't think that's a DBOP problem, we got a white screen failure when voltage scaling was reimplemented and it had to do with voltages a hair low getting stuck in the adc voltage check loop.

19:04:11bertrikI don't see how it's awkward, I put my name under an e-mail for example, instead of 'myself'
19:04:17amiconnImo saying 'myself' or even one's full name is superfluous in commit messages
19:04:34amiconnsvn always shows the committer as well, so it would be redundant
19:04:50Link4uhi again. Does rockboy work on iaudiio d2?
19:04:51domonokythe only reason we have the recommended commit message format, is to track people who dont already have commit access.

19:05:12domonokyLink4u: yes, but it is in a early state.
19:05:16Bagderdo we really want uncommented LOGF_ENABLE lines?

19:05:54BagderI would rather see them removed than within comments all over

19:08:10rasherI still don't see what's wrong with writing "Myself". The committer's name is right next to it..
19:08:20linuxstb_Bagder: one advantage is that it makes it clearer how logf works to a newcomer. But I agree its messy...

20:28:58gevaertsAre you saying that the scrollwheel doesn't work for you?
20:29:24pixelmaperfectdrug: if it doesn't have to do with colour, I could test on my M5 (the greyscale version of the X5)
20:29:46saratogaactually i was going to disable doom on the fuze so people stop reporting that it crashes due to lack of memory
20:30:37domonoky1saratoga: just add a splash a doom startup: "may crash, please dont report" :-)
20:31:36linuxstbsaratoga: That may just cause more questions, as people will still have doom.rock installed (and it will eventually give a plugin version error...)
20:32:06linuxstb(unless of course you write a "null" doom plugin to replace it...)
20:32:09saratogadon't they have to have it listed in plugins somewhere for it to show up in the menu?
20:32:15saratogaor is that only viewers?
20:32:33linuxstbJust viewers AFAIK

20:33:16LloreanDoes Doom 1 crash then or just Doom II-based WADs?
20:33:20linuxstbDoes it actually crash? i.e. it doesn't check if its run out of RAM?
20:33:22domonoky1pixelma: bits ofcourse
20:33:52Lloreanlinuxstb: The PC version won't start if not enough free RAM is detected, so I guess that's the only measure they felt necessary?
20:34:00mc2739linuxstb: it locks at the end of the first level
20:34:26gevaertsHow hard would it be to make the doom malloc check for out of memory and exit gracefully?
20:34:36gevaerts(assuming that that's what happens)
20:34:42amiconn8MB RAM should be sufficient for running doom

20:35:12saratogayou can watch in the sim as it depletes the malloc buffer and then dies
20:35:48linuxstbThat does sound like a valid bug though...
20:35:59saratogathe bug is that our doom port is inefficent
20:36:07perfectdrugpixelma: no it hasn't to do with colour. So let me describe: the X5 has as far as I understand no stopbutton, so long play is used for this. whenever he presses play too long he gets a terrible earbleeding audio distortion, when he resumes playback via the mainmenu. He also uses most of the time the remote, at which the play button serves 3 functionalities play/pause, stopp and shutdown. But he says the problem occurs even without the remote attached
20:36:15saratogaeither due to using too much memory, or not having an efficient malloc, or perhaps both
20:36:36linuxstbPlus the bug of not failing gracefully.
20:37:45pixelmaperfectdrug: with all audio formats (MP3 or something else) and does he use voice or something?

21:06:23Tomersand didn't make it

21:07:00TomersI've opened the project in Qt Creator, and get lot's of reds
21:07:03bluebrotheryou don't need cygwin. You need MinGW and msys

21:08:05bluebrothernot sure about that. I never used Qt SDK myself (it wasn't around when I started using it, and for building statically you need to rebuild Qt yourself anyway
21:08:10bluebrother)
21:08:42bluebrotherbut I guess Qt SDK installs an appropriate version of MinGW. I doubt it installs msys though
21:08:49Biontlinuxtb: how does that work? I just copy that file into directories and they'll then be ignored?

21:10:14Biontlinuxstb: Cool, I didn't know that

21:42:04kugelthe mini2440 is probably going to be very useful for debugging the eabi breakage
21:42:17TorneThat is a good idea :)

22:36:03saratogafuze current consumption: 550mah/16 hours = 34 mA
22:36:41saratogathe spec sheet says 0.25mW per MHz for the arm9 core, so at 62MHz and 4v: 62*.25/4 = ~4 ma
22:36:56saratogaso the rest of the chip is using 30 mA or the specs are way off
22:37:09saratogai wonder where all that power goes
22:38:11kugeldid you make a bench?
22:38:23funmansaratoga: did you try without playing or with lowest volume ?
22:38:49funmanor even with HP muted (there's a bit in as3514 regs)
22:39:42*kugel us reminded that he wanted to have a look at clocking dbop down when backlight is off

22:41:01funmanoh ok i thought you had measured with a dmm
22:41:24funmankugel: btw what's the status on this patch?
22:41:55funmani thought it was working on fuze
22:42:24kugelthe latest adds some display shifting and sporadic blue pixels because it access dbop while the lcd is working
22:43:02saratogathe spec sheet says 22 mA is typical without DRAM but with audio playback
22:43:06kugelhrm
22:43:25kugeldidn't the OF have an isr for erroneous dbop transfers?

22:43:46kugelmaybe that's used to detect button presses when the dbop is off/in a low power state
22:43:47funmani was understanding that the OF only uses DRAM for USB, and everything else fits in the 384kB
22:44:24funmanoh no, some SD code is located in DRAM

22:45:38kugelalso, 30 would be an avarage. it's probably a bit lower when the battery is full
22:47:52*kugel is changing languages to stop audio playback on his mini2440 :/

22:55:53bluebrotherdomonoky1: is there a reason libmkamsboot.a doesn't contain md5.o and dualboot.o? This seems to cause link issues for me −− strangely only in one setup, which should be identical to the one that's working.

23:22:20bluebrotherwell, if you have to look dependencies up because it depends on it depends on it depends then that's nothing thats a good way if this kind of dependency isn't needed at all
23:22:50bluebrotherplus, depending on objects breaks parallel building

23:23:07bluebrotherat least if those objects are created by the same build

23:23:41domonoky1doesnt the depency just specify a target ?
23:24:17domonoky1and this Makefile isnt easy, with all this mac things.. but feel free to improve.
23:24:23bluebrotheryes, but that means that the other target has to be built first.
23:24:55gevaertsbluebrother: what's the problem with that? Make is designed for that sort of thing
23:24:57domonoky1sure, but there is no way around this, when you link things together.
23:24:58bluebrotherbut building the source _itself_ does not require that object (which is the target) at all
