TDA2EVM5777: Vision SDK sample_app build configuration

Hello,

My objective is to separate the application from the TI toolchain and other VSDK dependencies. Thus, my folder structures are as shown below.

C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00

     |___ti_components
     |___vision_sdk
            |___apps
            |___build
            |___docs
            |___links_fw
            |___sample_app

D:\TEST

           |___binaries
           |___build
           |___links_fw
           |___sample_app

I also performed the following steps:

(1) All content under C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00 is unchanged from its default state

(2) Edited line #13 of D:\TEST\build\Rules.make to build 'sample_app' instead of 'apps'

(3) Edited line #2 of D:\TEST\build\tools_path.mk to point to C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\ti_components

(4) Edited line #11 of D:\TEST\build\rtos\makerules\env.mk to point to D:\TEST\binaries

I had expected that these steps will create the executables as I wanted. But the executables are still getting created under C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\vision_sdk\binaries.

It appears that the build configuration from D:\TEST does not override the configuration from C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\vision_sdk\build.

What are the proper steps to achieve this?

Thank you.

I see binaries folder inside D:/Test as well as shared in the above folder.

In the folder structure that I have depicted, I have shown the binaries folder under D:\TEST only, because that is how I want it.

Rishabh Garg said:

Are you initiating build from D:/Test/build folder?

Yes.

Rishabh Garg said:

Are you seeing few folders in C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\ and others in D:\Test or everything is under C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\.

I am seeing everything under C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\vision_sdk\.

Thank you.

Just to confirm, the build folder (D:\Test\build) from where you are trying to build, Did you copied it from "C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\vision_sdk" folder ?

Yes.

And also looking like you are modifying wrong "env.mk" file

(4) Edited line #11 of D:\ADAS_PRK_I\build\rtos\makerules\env.mk to point to D:\TEST\binaries

Either you should edit the file under C:\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_06_00_00\vision_sdk\build\rtos\makerules\env.mk to point to D:\TEST\binaries

or edit the file under D:\Test\build\rtos\makerules\env.mk to point to D:\TEST\binaries

I did NOT edit D:\ADAS_PRK_I\build\rtos\makerules\env.mk. By mistake, I specified the wrong path here; I have corrected step (4) in my earlier post. I edited D:\TEST\build\rtos\makerules\env.mk to point to D:\TEST\binaries, which is as per your suggestion.

Thank you.

Hello,

Your suggestion worked nicely. The binaries were generated under D:\TEST, as required.

Thank you very much for your help.
