Hi Thomas,
Thank you for your comments.

Agree, I'll fix that.

The idea was to be able to build the examples for all installed
targets, skipping those which are not installed:
make install T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc
# build for x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc only
make examples
But if you prefer, I can change it so the user has to specify
the target explicitly.

Yes, I'll fix that too.

This works fine if you do:
# install the x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc target in RTE_SDK=.
make install T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc
# compile examples in build, using the installed target
# x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc from RTE_SDK=.
make examples T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc O=build
Indeed, I would say that all makefile commands called from DPDK
root directory assume that RTE_SDK=. so that's the expected
behavior.
I'll send a v3 with the fixes tomorrow.
Regards,
Olivier
