Re: [Paparazzi-devel] How to understand the function of source code in the file sw/airborne?

[Felix Ruess]

Hi,

to get a rough overview have a look at http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Overview and http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/DevGuide/DesignOverview

I know the latter is is woefully out of date...

You should also take a look at http://paparazzi.github.com/docs/ where doxygen documentation is generated daily for 4.0 and the latest master.

It might be nicer to browse through the code there and you can have a look at the call graphs which might help you get your bearings, e.g.

http://paparazzi.github.com/docs/latest/rotorcraft_2autopilot_8h.html#a1914661233fbbed6c2ee653b99757652

Cheers, Felix

Hi Hui,

The paparazzi sources are easier to read when you understand how they are assembled by the ML software, based on your XML configuration. There's an extra build step, before "make", that might be different to what you expect.

One way that might work for you is to focus on some "already built" code in var/ to get an idea of how that works. Then look at the build system separately, see how that code got made from the stuff in sw/
