dnl ====================================================================

dnl eCos is a componentized architecture for deeply embedded systems.

dnl It requires a very different configuration system from typical

dnl autoconfiscated software such as the various GNU packages.

dnl

dnl The main eCos host-side software is autoconfiscated to some extent,

dnl in that the usual sequence of "configure;make;make install" will

dnl work under the right conditions. However it does not conform to

dnl the GNU coding standards in numerous ways, for example "make dist"

dnl will not work. The main eCos host-side software lives in the

dnl "host" subdirectory, and is built unconditionally.

dnl

dnl The eCos target-side software lives in the "packages" subdirectory,

dnl and is organized in numerous subdirectories corresponding to different

dnl packages and potentially different versions of each package. In the

dnl master repository managed by CVS there will only be one version of

dnl each package, "current", which simplifies things somewhat. Other

dnl repositories will not be quite so straightforward and require a

dnl suitable administration tool.

dnl

dnl The various eCos packages are not currently auto-confiscated.

dnl In particular building eCos requires the use of eCos configuration

dnl technology, not autoconf - there is simply no good way of handling

dnl a system as highly configurable as eCos using a few command-line

dnl options passed to "configure". There would also be serious confusion

dnl between host and target, especially when e.g. cross-compiling the

dnl host tools. However a possible future enhancement

dnl would involve making eCos releases via configure and make, thus

dnl allowing for a release process that combines building the various

dnl host-side tools such as gcc with creating eCos epk's for the various

dnl packages.

dnl

dnl A complication is that some of the eCos target-side packages also

dnl contain package-specific host-side support. For example the

dnl Linux synthetic target support uses special host-side software

dnl to provide I/O facilities: the architectural HAL package provdes

dnl generic support, the synthetic ethernet package extends this

dnl with ethernet support, and so on. Such package-specific host-side

dnl software does not belong in the main host subdirectory, that

dnl would make it very difficult to distribute new packages or

dnl new versions of a package. However keeping the code with the

dnl various packages makes building more complicated.

dnl

dnl   1) if the entire repository is managed by CVS or anoncvs, this

dnl      configure script will search the packages tree for any packages

dnl      that have host-side software that needs to be built -

dnl      specifically, that have a file "configure" inside a "host"

dnl      subdirectory in a version of a package.

dnl

dnl   2) if instead the repository contains additional packages

dnl      installed as epk's and managed by an administration tool then

dnl      it is the responsibility of that tool to let the users build

dnl      and rebuild the host-side software as required, for whichever

dnl      host platform or platforms are being used. In other words

dnl      it is the responsibility of the admin tool to create a

dnl      suitable build directory and run "configure; make; make install",

dnl      usually as part of the installation process. Note that several

dnl      versions of a package may be installed, and it is the

dnl      responsibility of each package to take this into account

dnl      (although the configure macros are aware of this to some extent,

dnl      and will e.g. generate suitable install directory names).

dnl      Also note that the top-level configure script will not pick

dnl      up such packages because they will be versioned, i.e. the

dnl      test for current/host/configure will fail because the

dnl      version will not be "current".

dnl

dnl   3) as a special case it may be desirable to ship pre-built binaries

dnl      of some of the package-specific software. It is not clear

dnl      just what would be the best way of shipping these - putting

dnl      them into the epk's would not be quite right because that would

dnl      make the epk's host-specific rather than generic.

dnl

dnl There is an unresolved problem with possible dependencies between

dnl packages, if e.g. the host-side of the synthetic ethernet package could

dnl only be built after the architectural synthetic target package.

dnl Some of the eCos documentation is generic and lives in the "doc"

dnl subdirectory. Other eCos documentation is package-specific and lives

dnl in the appropriate package directory. At present there is no support

dnl for building the documentation via configure and make, but such

dnl support may be added in future.

dnl

dnl There is a subdirectory acsupport containing various files such

dnl as config.guess and install.sh that are common. This also contains

dnl an acinclude.m4 file with various macros that are useful for

dnl eCos.

dnl Nothing actually gets built in this directory, so there should be no

dnl need to worry about compiler flags etc. Instead, the problem is

dnl figuring out what should actually get built.

dnl

dnl  1) the host subdirectory should always get built, if it exists.

dnl     With the 2.0 release system the directory gets moved to

dnl     tools/src

if test -f "${srcdir}/host/configure" ; then

   SUBDIRS="host"

elif test -f "${srcdir}/tools/src/configure" ; then

   SUBDIRS="tools/src"

else

   SUBDIRS=""

fi

dnl  2) any package which has a configure script in a

dnl     current/host subdirectory should also get built.

dnl

dnl     Searching the directory tree is currently done by shell globbing.

dnl     Invoking "find" with suitable arguments might be quicker, but

dnl     less portable. On some hosts there may be problems with environmental

dnl     limits if too many packages provide host-side software.

dnl

dnl     Currently there is no ordering of packages, so e.g. a device

dnl     driver's host-side support cannot depend on some HAL package

dnl     because the latter may not have been built and installed yet.

dnl     This is a good thing because packages are meant to be self-contained

dnl     whenever possible. Interaction between packages is typically handled

dnl     at the Tcl level at run-time, so there are no build-time complications.
