Could OpenWrt run on barebox? - bootloader

Could OpenWrt run on barebox
Is there a portable application framework on top of uboot/barebox? So my source code is indepent from the low-level hardware.

Absolutely possible. I've been using barebox as a main bootloader for imx25 SoC. There is no barebox in a public packages though(I've never met it), but you can build your own "bootloader-barebox" package.
Just follow these links:
https://vivekian2.wordpress.com/2007/03/28/building-your-own-package-for-openwrt/
http://prplfoundation.org/wiki/Creating_an_OpenWrt_package_for_a_web_page
I'm not sure about framework, but you probably know that you can create an application. http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootStandalone
Here is an example of Makefile for barebox:

OpenWRT. Makefile target pattern contains no '%'

I'm trying to compile OpenWRT package. Already compile toolchain. From here I know it can be when use static pattern rules, but I don't. I checked the whole file for syntax errors - everything is fine (maybe I missed something).

Openwrt Makefile with custom compile definition does not get executed

I'm trying to get a custom compile definition to work to seperete "make compile" from "make install" but the custom definition Build/compile never gets executed.
define Build/compile
echo -e "\e[1;34m \nBuild/compile $(PKG_NAME)\n $<\e[0m" \
$(MAKE) $(MAKE_FLAGS) -C $(PKG_BUILD_DIR) \
DESTDIR="$(PKG_INSTALL_DIR)"
endef
this does not work when executed like: make -j1 V=s package/network/nodejs/node/compile
but the prepare step works:
define Build/Prepare
echo -e "\e[1;34m \nBuild/Prepare $(PKG_NAME)\n $<\e[0m"
endef
when executed with: make -j1 V=s package/network/nodejs/node/prepare
So please could you help to find out what goes wrong with the following script:

It should be Build/Compile, not compile (capital C).

Using Qmake in Makefile?

Normally, what I would do is to create two makefiles; one manually and another automatically using qmake. Right now, I'd like to find a way to use qmake inside the makefile that I've created manually.

Is it possible?

I'm trying to create a package, compile it and install it in OpenWrt. However, I have trouble getting past this error:

The following code is taken from OpenWRT project. Can someone give an abstract description? Thanks in advance!

The subdir template generates the standard make targets for a subdirectory.
It is called with the directory name as first argument, e.g. in package/Makefile it's 'package'
it then treats the variable package/builddirs as the list of subdirectories with valid build targets, which are contained in the SUBTARGETS variable.
For running the 'compile' target of a package 'foo', it allows you to run 'make package/foo/compile' which will recursively invoke make with the right environment variables in order to build the subdirectory.
This template also has support for some optional features that can be enabled through environment variables, e.g. for logging the output to a file, ignoring dependencies, etc.
It also supports selective debugging output.
The stampfile template is simply a small makefile target wrapper for speeding up builds by keeping a recursively timestamp-checked stampfile around it
