Hi !
I've seen that the Makefile given with the examples changed a lot between SDK11 and SDK12, lots of improvements ! However there's still something I don't get. Why do you use this syntax :
SRC_FILES += \
$(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/log/src/nrf_log_backend_serial.c \
$(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/log/src/nrf_log_frontend.c \
$(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/button/app_button.c \
Instead of this one ?
SRC_FILES += $(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/log/src/nrf_log_backend_serial.c
SRC_FILES += $(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/log/src/nrf_log_frontend.c
SRC_FILES += $(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/button/app_button.c
In my opinion the second one is better, mainly because it allows to do that :
SRC_FILES += $(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/log/src/nrf_log_backend_serial.c
SRC_FILES += $(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/log/src/nrf_log_frontend.c
SRC_FILES += $(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/button/app_button.c
# Conditionally adding some_file to the build
ifeq($(SOME_MAKEFILE_VAR),1)
SRC_FILES += $(SDK_ROOT)/components/libraries/button/some_file.c
endif
To conditionally add a file to the build, a folder to the include paths, a parameter to the compiler, etc.
By example you could use Makefile variables to add RTT files to the build, as well as defining (or not) NRF_LOG_USES_RTT.
Is there a reason for using the first syntax ?
