**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Dec 18 02:59:59 2015 Dec 18 08:37:52 Hi! I'm trying to create a recipe for a cmake project that requires some enviromental variables to be set. How do I set new enviromental variables in a do_configure_prepend() function? Dec 18 08:41:42 export worked. Sorry for stupid question Dec 18 13:05:25 rburton: hi, do you plan to merge my tune changes? Dec 18 13:45:04 JaMa: yes. bonus points if you can 1) double-check the changes that landed in mut already from andre, and rebase onto those. Dec 18 14:52:04 rburton: what is mut? ross/mut in poky-contrib? Dec 18 14:52:21 I don't use poky so I cannot test them easily there Dec 18 14:52:24 bbl Dec 18 15:01:56 heyho Dec 18 15:03:54 I'm trying to use git inside a receipe (for pushing some generated stuff into a repo, shouldn't matter anyway) - git pull and git clone both stall while running git-upload-pack, this doesn't happen if I use same clone/pull command by hand. Dec 18 15:04:30 Already dumped the variables from the script, sourced them and tried the commands, they work fine, unless, they are called from withing the receipe Dec 18 15:04:45 Any ideas what might cause this behaviour? Dec 18 18:51:43 Our team's about to start our first project using Yocto - I was going to pick up a book to supplement the online documentation and get us up to speed quickly. Any recommendations? Dec 18 19:24:38 General Guidance Question: I'm trying to make a recipe that needs to run a script from another recipe/package. How is that generally done? Dec 18 19:30:24 huntero; I'm pretty new in using Yocto but "Embedded Linux Projects Using Yocto Project Cookbook" is a pretty helpful. Dec 18 19:46:26 otay, stage the script in a suitbale place in the sysrrot Dec 18 19:57:06 Crofton|work okay, I'll think about that (well try it actually). Thank you. signed, bitbake noob Dec 18 19:57:39 :) Dec 18 19:57:42 gneerally if you need to run something on the build system you use a -native version of the recipe Dec 18 19:57:49 depends on exact circumstances of course Dec 18 19:58:12 ahh, I was wondering what native was for Dec 18 20:02:55 I may be overcomplicating this. I'm trying to package some software (somebody else wrote). In order to run his stuff, he requires the development environment setup to be run from a different package (an SDK). The restriction is that the user will not be required to run the script manually. But now, I'm thinking that I should try to run that script, in the sdk, in the do_compile phase. Dec 18 20:03:56 Maybe I have the wrong approach but some trial and error wouldn't hurt. I need to learn anyway. Dec 18 20:05:11 How long does it take to get good at Bitbake? Dec 18 20:09:58 :) Dec 18 20:11:44 otay, you are never good, just capable :) Dec 18 20:12:12 and it does sound like you are doing something unusual Dec 18 20:12:35 what kind of sdk? Dec 18 20:15:51 The SDK in question is the Azure SDK. The developer I mentioned, wrote an app that uses it. He gave me steps to set up his app manually. In one of the steps, it says to go to the Azure sdk installation directory and run the dev environment setup script. So, I tried to do that in a post install script but it's ugly, I think. One reason is because it needs to compile stuff. It would be best to not have to compile on target. Dec 18 20:17:31 It just dawned on me; why don't I try to run that script in the azure sdk recipe? So I was gonna try to do it in do_compile_append. Dec 18 20:18:17 * otay quotes, "you are never good, just capable :)" to my team Dec 18 20:19:21 It sounds obvious now. Dec 18 20:19:33 (maybe) Dec 18 20:28:37 ugg. So I called the dev env setup script in do_compile_append() and it runs but fails because it can't find an executable that the sdk itself provides. Dec 18 20:29:36 Hmm... I have to specify where that executable is somehow. On target it would be in PATH Dec 18 20:34:05 What did I get myself into? At least I'm getting paid for this. Gonna take a break and maybe the problem will fix itself (heh). bbl Dec 18 20:45:46 otay, you should try emailing one of the too many lists on this Dec 18 20:46:22 liekly yocto@yp.org since that is the closest we have to new user support Dec 18 22:04:15 Okay, cool. Thanks for the helps. I appreciate it. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Dec 19 02:59:58 2015
