When using the make system to generate T files, if you change
T_messages.txt you may have problems compiling the gnb with ninja.
If you want to see the problem:
First run: cd cmake_targets; ./build_oai --ninja --gNB
Then: cd common/utils/T
edit T_messages.txt, add a trace, for example:
---
ID = ENB_PHY_UL_TOCK
DESC = eNodeB uplink tick - one tick per ms at start of uplink processing
GROUP = ALL:PHY:GRAPHIC:ENB
FORMAT = int,eNB_ID : int,frame : int,subframe
---
then run: make
then: cd cmake_targets/ran_build/build; ninja nr-softmodem
You should have an error looking like this:
---
[3/81] Checking validity of VCD files

error: VCD_FIRST_VARIABLE is not correct in T_defs.h
You probably added a VCD trace (variable or function) but you did not
update T_messages.txt and/or T_defs.h in common/utils/T/
[...]

Let's first isolate the generated T .h files when using make because
we have two versions of T_IDs.h and T_messages.txt.h when mixing
make/cmake.
A next commit will regenerate T_IDs.h and T_messages.txt.h when
T_messages.txt chages for the cmake system, because this commit
does not solve the problem.
