Buildroot

Buildroot is a build system.

Useful commands

Buildroot is built around Makefiles. Each command should be run as follow: make <Target>.

Target	Comments
toolchain	Build only the toolchain
<package>	Build the package and its dependencies
<package>-cleandir	Remove the build folder of the package
<package>-reconfigure	Reconfigure and rebuild the package; useful after having change the configuration
<package>-rebuild	Rebuild the package

Notes

• By default, Buildroot compiles every library as shared. That is why the compilation of some projects failed at the link edition step because static symbols are stripped out of shared libraries.
