Change Hardware .cpp file

[JeroNeo]

Hello,

I am trying to add changes to a .cpp file in the hardware dir
but i cannot get this to work.
I have Debian 11 and compiled Domoticz (V2022.2 (build 14784)) according to this guide: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Build_Dom ... rom_source
I open up lets say /dev-domoticz/hardware/SatelIntegra.cpp and change some log lines and saved them. then preform:
$ sudo make
i see that the file i have edited is changed and being added

after that i preform:
$ ./domoticz
but do not see my changes i have added at the log line.
I think i am missing a step.

Best regards,
Jero

First, I never build domoticz myself so perhaps I am saying something stupid....

Do you start ./domoticz in the /dev-domoticz (build)folder or in the /domoticz (installed) folder? It should be in de dev-domoticz folder i suppose.
Is the domoticz executable modified in the folder you have manualy started domoticz?

started it from dev-domoticz and also i need to start it manually

It should work like that. When you start re-built domoticz, in startup logs, do you see "-modified" flag added in "Build Hash:" message? It indicates that you really started domoticz built from modified source files, in example:

there is the issue, i am getting:

2022-12-05 08:15:56.161 Status: Domoticz V2022.2 (build 14784) (c)2012-2022 GizMoCuz

2022-12-05 08:15:56.161 Status: Startup Path: /home/domoticz/dev-domoticz/

Without -modified. i have restarted the server and did the steps again it does not change to modified.

I don't think you need to issue any 'sudo' command when building
Please note that the executable could be build inside the 'bin' folder

Thank you for pointing out the "bin" folder.
this does the trick.
i can now see and test my changes. and they are working.
