these files are auto-generated. If you run 'make cfg', e.g.,:
make PREFIX=/usr/local/kamailio FLAVOUR=kamailio
include_modules="db_mysql presence presence_xml" cfg
will create the config.mak and modules.lst with appropriate variable
set.
If you do not run 'make cfg', is automatically run by simple 'make'
command, without any extra parameters.
Let's assume that I usually build a set of modules given in
modules.lst.
Now, say I want to run another build where some modules missing in the
config file should be build, and let's also assume that I explicitly
want to ignore a bunch of modules which are included in modules.lst. The
build deviations should affect a single build run only but not any
subsequent builds.
Would I need to change the config file(s) for that special build (and
later revert them), or could I do it by means of giving Make parameters
that override cfg settings?
as said, these files are auto-generated. In the 1.x, you had to do:
make PARAMETERS all; make PARAMETERS install
now you can do:
make PARAMETERS cfg; make all; make install
You can overwrite in some cases, for example:
make modules modules=modules_k/pdt
will compile only the pdt module from K.
