ohNet Installtion

[andreww]

With regard to your build times, we have been building ohNet for armv5 devices (Sheevaplugs) primarily with a cross-compiler on a Linux desktop. If it takes an hour to build ohNet on-device you might find it's worthwhile getting a cross compiler set up. That said, it can be daunting to set up a cross-compiler in the first place, so I understand if you don't go down that path.

You ask if it's possible to rebuild only 1 file instead of all of ohNet. In general you can build individual targets in the makefile by invoking "make <targetname>". So here you could probably do "make Build/Obj/Posix/Release/libohNetDevices.a".

It's possible the "Malformed archive" message means that some of the object files are for a different architecture, but I cannot imagine how you could have managed to get object files for different architectures together in the build directory. When diagnosing problems like that, I find it helpful to inspect files with the "file" command. For example:

Code:

file Build/Obj/Posix/Release/*.o

That will generally tell you useful information about what's in a file, including what architecture object files, shared libraries and executables were built for.

If I have any ideas about what might be wrong I'll let you know, but I can't think of much else at the moment. Is there plenty of free space on the current partition?
