I had issues with this and ended up creating a traditional makefile with the paths declared etc. I still had some issues - can't remember what to be honest - so ended up relocating my custom apps directory as a "myapps" subdirectory of the main nuttx-apps tree and it has worked well since. Makefiles are not my strong point - by any stretch of the imagination - but I suspect that an out-of-tree custom apps folder needs to be specifically included in default NuttX makefiles/make.defs/whatever for it to play ball. Or there's some magic incantation needed in the custom apps make.defs that makes it all work - I just don't know. But, instead, perhaps there's a case for a new Kconfig entry in the Build Setup menus for `CONFIG_CUSTOM_APPSDIR` that is then included by default in the NuttX build? I can play with that and see if it works - but won't be for a couple of weeks as I'm going away for a short break. Not related to this, but I am also looking at how to include a custom file outside of the nuttx-apps tree but used by an in-tree app. That might be easiest with a `CONFIG_CUSTOM_APPINCDIR` which ties in with the above and why I am happy to try this out if it's a viable solution? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
