SUPPORTED EAPIS

6 7 8

FUNCTIONS

fix_vdr_libsi_include <filename> [more filenames]: Plugins failed on compile with wrong path of libsi includes, this can be fixed by 'function + space separated list of files'
vdr_remove_i18n_include <filename> [more filenames]: Compile will fail if plugin still use the old i18n language handling, most parts are fixed by vdr-plugin-2.eclass internal functions itself. Remove unneeded i18n.h includes from files, if they are still wrong there, this can be fixed by this function with a space separated list of files
vdr-plugin-2_src_util [ list of wanted eclass helper functions to call ]: wrapper function to call other functions in this eclass

ECLASS VARIABLES

VDRPLUGIN (GENERATED BY ECLASS)

The name of the vdr plugin, plain name without "vdr-" or "plugin" prefix or suffix. This variable is derived from ${PN} and is read-only for the ebuild.

VDR_CONFD_FILE

A plugin config file can be specified through the $VDR_CONFD_FILE variable, it defaults to ${FILESDIR}/confd. Each config file will be installed as e.g. ${D}/etc/conf.d/vdr.${VDRPLUGIN}

VDR_RCADDON_FILE

Installing rc-addon files is basically the same as for plugin config files (see above), it's just using the $VDR_RCADDON_FILE variable instead. The default value when $VDR_RCADDON_FILE is undefined is: ${FILESDIR}/rc-addon.sh and will be installed as ${VDR_RC_DIR}/plugin-${VDRPLUGIN}.sh

The rc-addon files will be sourced by the startscript when the specific plugin has been enabled. rc-addon files may be used to prepare everything that is necessary for the plugin start/stop, like passing extra command line options and so on.

NOTE: rc-addon files must be valid shell scripts!

GENTOO_VDR_CONDITIONAL

This is a hack for ebuilds like vdr-xineliboutput that want to conditionally install a vdr-plugin

PO_SUBDIR

By default, translation are found in"${S}"/po but this default can be overridden by defining PO_SUBDIR.

Example:

PO_SUBDIR="bla foo/bla"
