Testing New Code in Limey Linux

The procedure for testing new code in Limey Linux is as follows:

1. Change directories to /usr/src/astsrc
2. Retrieve the sources from flash by typing: getsrc from the shell prompt
3. Change directories to /use/src/astsrc/asterisk/apps for app_rpt.c or /usr/src/astsrc/asterisk/channels for chan_irlp.c or chan_echolink.c
4. Make a backup copy of the source file you want to change.
5. Move or download a new source file of the same name
6. Move up one directory level (to /usr/src/astsrc/asterisk)
7. Invoke make by typing: make at the shell prompt
8. Fix syntax errors (if any)
9. Install the new binaries by typing make install at the shell prompt
10. Restart asterisk by typing: killall asterisk
11. Wait for Asterisk to restart
12. Test your changes
13. When you are satisfied, save the binaries by issuing a make upgrade from the shell prompt
14. Save the modified sources to flash by typing make svsrc from the command prompt
