I built a package for openwrt following instructions here: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/packages
I wrote a config.in file to add a submenu into menuconfig. it works fine, and i can see those "CONFIG_XXXX" in .config. but my source code seemed to be unaware of those CONFIG_XXXX. the code segment enclosed with CONFIG_XXXX didn't compile at all.
Any idea?

Here's the scenario where I got stuck.
------------------------------
config.in
config MAXLEN
int "max length"
default 1024
.config
CONFIG_MAXLEN=1024
test.c
int len = CONFIG_MAXLEN; # compiler complains. no such symbol.
You need to pass them as defines to your compiler, e.g. In the OpenWrt Makefile:
TARGET_CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_MAXLEN="$(CONFIG_MAXLEN)"thanks, jow,
You're always helpful and enlightening.
The discussion might have continued from here.
