Jul 15 20:15:27 <Marex> is it possible to override a function from a bbclass in meta in a higher-up metalayer ?
Jul 15 20:15:34 <Marex> (yes, I can imagine this is not what you should do)
Jul 15 20:20:44 <Marex> or well, is it possible to override a bbclass file in a higher-up layer ?
Jul 15 21:23:30 <kergoth> Marex: you can override the class entirely if your layer is before the other in BBLAYERS (*not* based on BBFILE_PRIORITY), or in some cases you could just inherit a custom class at an appropriate point to make adjustments
Jul 15 21:23:49 <kergoth> i.e. a class in IMAGE_CLASSES, you could add your own class to IMAGE_CLASSES after the other one (say, _append) and adjust as appropriate
Jul 15 21:23:52 <kergoth> but it's case by case
Jul 15 21:29:42 <Marex> kergoth: I need to tweak staging.bbclass and utils.bbclass
Jul 15 21:30:00 <Marex> kergoth: at least until oe core gets the needed backports ...
Jul 15 21:30:45 <Marex> kergoth: well, yeah, I can shuffle layers around , but that seems more like a fragile hack than a real solution ...
Jul 15 21:30:55 <Marex> kergoth: I'm looking for something a bit better ...
Jul 15 21:31:21 <Marex> kergoth: I saw the trick with layer order in some email from 2012-ish, did nothing change since ? :)
