Creating Software Package in altera.components

I can't find the documentation for Creating a Software Package in the altera.components part of the NIOS II IDE. I've cloned altera_hostfs, changed the TCL and MK to reference my one file. But the new file isn't compiled. I've deleted altera.components and the regenerated one includes my additions, but it still will not build the added C file (I even put a# error in it to be sure).

What did I miss? How do I get it to recognize the new component?

Thank you,

Bill

    I've found the scripts and whatnot to rebuild the BSP but I was unable to run these under Windows using Cygwin (I think that's what's needed to run bash). I've given up and simply am using a C/C++ library now.
