It does help if you don't know where to go to learn. The problem with
self learning is that it tends to be hit and miss. Without an
understanding of the general architecture, mistakes will be made.
I don't have time to be a Trinity core developer. If you don't like the
comments, I can avoid all replies.

I'm nowhere close to being qualifed to write
something
about
CXX/CFLAGS. Somebody else (not you) should
provide a
paragraph
addressing those variables.
Read the
documentation for gcc and make. They control
how a program is compiled and can make a huge
difference. The developer should know what the options
do before they are set. Variables like CFLAGS and
CXXFLAGS are often set or modified in a Makefile.
For qt based apps, it would also be helpful to read through
the qmake manual as that generally is used, via a .pro file,
to generate the Makefile for an application or library.
