Well, if a plugin is no longer actively maintained, it's probably
time to drop it. You know what they say about dead horses ;-).
Being actively developed and being needed are two different things. I wouldn't want to drop all the plugins that aren't under active development any more, as this would probably be true for 2/3 of my plugins.
If you put all your plugins into PLUGINS/src under the VDR source
directory (with
the old Make.global still in place), change into PLUGINS/src and do
for i in *; do make -C $i all; done
I would guess that they build regardless whether they use an old or new
Makefile. Maybe you should give it a try.
Nope, as you forgot to filter out folders with version numbers.
Well, it's a makeshift solution, so you could just make sure there are
only folders you want to be handled.
Plus, any updated plugin (at least any built-in plugin) does no longer create the *.so.$APIVERSION file, and there's no generic way to do this.
Well, then maybe this works (haven't tested it):
for i in *; do make -C $i all; cp $i/libvdr-$i.so ../../PLUGINS/lib/libvdr-$i.so.1.7.34; done
All updated plugins require an additional make install, that will create the *.so.$APIVERSION in some folder defined in vdr.pc. However, some old-style plugins will do totally different things on make install, like xineliboutput for example.
Thats why I wasn't even able to set up a running test build of my VDR yet, even though it complied without any issues: Total mess of .so files.
The question is whether you really *want* to get things running ;-)
It's totally up to you what you do.
Klaus
