In my search to find out more about resource files (.src), I came across
the old Tools information on the web server, and specifically the project
dependency chart:

Is this still valid?


I do not think that it is still 100% valid.
It contains modules neon and berkeleydb which had been removed during our IP clearance work.

But for a broader view about the module dependencies it can be used.
Such a dependency graph can only be a snapshot on a certain revision or release.

A dependency graph could be build using the information in the files <module>/prj/build.lst. The first text line contains the modules on which <module> depends on. The build process uses this information to figure out which module needs to build first. But be aware, there might be missing the one or the other dependency, because it is not needed for the build process. Deeper investigation/evaluation of the makefiles would also reveal dependency information. But there are also dependencies which are not express in the makefiles or the <build.lst> files. For example, certain modules depend on default_images - it contains icons and images for the UI -, but this dependency is not explicitly mentioned.


Best regards, Oliver.
