Open-WRT toolchain build machine

Question

When I try to build one project I am getting the following error.

Please build on a Open-WRT toolchain build machine

What this means? How to fix this issue? If the answer may be very long please provide some links to get some idea about this.

I am very new to Open-WRT.

Answer 1

Download the OpenWrt Build root https://wiki.openwrt.org/about/toolchain This will have the openwrt tool chain Modify the Makefile of your application to use the OpenWrt Tool chain. Basically override the CC and LD fields (CXX also if it is a C++ application).

CC=<path to toolchain>architecture-openwrt-linux-uclibc-gcc
LD=<path_to_toolchain>architecture-openwrt-linux-uclibc-ld
