currently writing a tutorial involving OE and working up to yocto and want to verify a couple things. i'm reading the OE manual, section on include/require:
http://docs.openembedded.org/usermanual/usermanual.html#recipes_require and want to verify that that is purely a textual inclusion, so that *anything* that is common across a number of .bb files can be centralized in a .inc file, correct? and on that note, a larger question about the OE manual itself. in that same section, there's a reference to the cherokee package, and the alleged .bb file: PR = "r7" SRC_URI_append = "file://configure.patch \ file://Makefile.in.patch \ file://Makefile.cget.patch \ file://util.patch" require cherokee.inc do_configure() { gnu-configize oe_runconf sed -i 's:-L\$:-L${STAGING_LIBDIR} -L\$:' ${S}/*libtool } unsurprisingly, that's out of date as the current .bb file is simply: require cherokee.inc PR = "${INC_PR}.0" SRC_URI[md5sum] = "21b01e7d45c0e82ecc0c4257a9c27feb" SRC_URI[sha256sum] = "042b5687b1a3db3ca818167548ce5d32c35e227c6640732dcb622a6f4a078b7d" but that's not my point. since i want my tutorial to walk someone through various files, given the split into the oe-core and meta-openembedded layers, i'm thinking of using examples strictly out of oe-core since there's more than enough there. but the cherokee example is in the meta-openembedded layer, and that distinction doesn't appear to be made early in the OE manual anywhere. is there a plan to revise that manual to incorporate the distinction? is there a newer manual elsewhere? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
