OK, I'm not entirely sure my title is using the correct terminology, so let me attempt to explain what I'm trying to do.
I've got a bunch of .c and .h files that I am using in a current project for doing various things (converting time to UTC, doing CJSON conversions, storing log file info, etc). I want to reuse the functions in these files across a bunch of other projects (the other products need these common functions), and have it such that if I update one of these files, all the projects pull in the updated files next time I do a build. That way, I'm not maintaining the same file across 3 or 4 different projects.
Problem is, I've no idea as to the best way to achieve this.
I'm doing something like this in one of my projects, where I am pulling in someone else's code from GitHub, then having that compiled into my code so I can access the various API's they've written. That uses an entry in the nrf/west.yml file for my SDK:
# RTC Driver
- name: pcf85063a
url: github.com/.../pcf85063a
revision: master
path: pcf85063a
The actual folder pcf85063a sits within the sub-directories for the nRF Connect SDK folder on my local machine.
I could potentially do it that way, but I'm sure there is an alternative way using CMakeLists and path definitions that may be more appropriate. But I don't understand enough about CMakeLists to fully understand if & how I can leverage them to achieve what I want to do.
Can anyone point me the the right direction of how I might go about achieving my goal?
Thanks and regards,
Mike
