Example with an external board
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
This tests an external board implementation.
|
|
The goal is to show using an external board that still needs to use the
|
|
'RIOT/boards' directory.
|
|
|
|
To allow automated testing by `murdock` this board is named 'native'.
|
|
|
|
As it wants to extend native, which is not a common board, some hacks must be
|
|
done as the 'board' module is implemented directly by the 'RIOT/boards/native'.
|
|
|
|
If you are running an 'ubuntu-bionic' you could even compile the example in
|
|
docker and run the test.
|
|
|
|
*Note:* This test uses still the deprecated `BOARDSDIR` variable instead of the
|
|
new `EXTERNAL_BOARD_DIRS` variable. This is by intent so that the CI can verify
|
|
backward compatibility is still working as intended.
