2474.0. "More info Re: build export_all failure" by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Wed Aug 07 1996 20:59

Subj: 	More info Re: build export_all failure
More information: 	
I did this before "build export_all": 	

cd src
mklinks ../obj

Is the solution as simple as not doing the above mklinks (my first guess)?
Note that I do not want to recompile all object modules,
I just want to put the headers and *.a into the export area.

What I'm trying to do is to change one .c file in one library.
But the change depends on a header file change buried in the kernel.
I want to do the minimal work possible to get the header to the
export area and to recompile and link the library.
Then I need to rebuild a command (that part I know how to do).

Why not just take the simple approach and do mklinks in export/alpha? You
should be able to use the -link_from and -link_to options to mklinks to link
just about anything you want in there.
