Hello!
I am exploring the whole custom BSP thing and I'm trying to determine how it's better than simply creating a base project and zipping it up and putting is somewhere. The idea would be that every time you start a new project for that particular board, simply import the saved project from the archive and away you go. One advantage of that method that I have found is that I can also build and configure stacks in the configurator and they get replicated in the new project. When I do the same thing with a BSP, it seems like my configuration.xml gets overwritten with some default thing and all my work is gone.
So my questions are:
1) is configuration.xml supposed to be overwritten when included as part of a BSP i.e. the one stored with the BSP is not the one that is used when a new project is created using the new bsp?
2) What is the upside of using a custom BSP over the aforementioned method?
3) Are there disadvantages of using a BSP? i.e. does everything that gets brought in with the BSP get overwritten with the BSP version every time a Generate Project Contents gets done? I know that's true of Synergy Framework components, but BSP components too?
Thanks guys!
Bill
