Thanks Mike.

modmake.rules is created in the $(switch_builddir)/build.

What I see as the problem is in src/mod/Makefile.am

There is a statement line 12 that points moddir to the source

            if test –d “$(switch_srcdir)/src/mod/$$confmoddir” ; then \

                        moddir = “$(switch_srcdir)/src/mod/$$confmoddir” ;

And then the statements starting around line 22 that cd to moddir (in src) and fire off make

            if test –f “$$moddir/Makefile” ; then \                    ß Yep, this will be true

                        cd $$moddir && … && $(MAKE)

I’m not sure what to change to get it to build in $(switch_builddir), and getting the source automatically from $(switch_srcdir).  My old-fashion brute-force idea is to symlink the source src/mod/subdirs in the build src/mod/subdirs right before line 12, changing line 12 to use $(switch_builddir).

Does anybody have a better idea?

Thanks,

Robert

The Makefile rules that those are built with can all be found in build/modmake.rules.in.  I looked them over real quick and they look right, maybe try throwing some debug echo statements in there or build with env var of VERBOSE=1 to see more of what is going on and toss a patch to correct the issue on jira for me.

I am trying to build in a subdirectory off the Freeswitch source.  I can configure successfully and have make working for switch files and the libraries, but I am having trouble with the modules in src/mod.  They still compile in the src/mod folders.  Any ideas?
