Hello Gusarambula,
No that was not the example i am working with.
I am trying to bitbake some Qt image with Helloworld app.
*******************************************************************************************************
do_compile() {
cc -o ***
}
do_install()
{
*****
}
********************************************************************************************************
This works fine. Since the steps are explicitly defined. This may be got as an example when we create a new layer.
$ yocto-layer create ***
But what i am refering to, is the one which uses Autotools to compile, configure, install the same helloworld example. This is given in POKY reference manual as well as the YOCTO reference manual.
**************************************************************************************************************
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://COPYING;md5=adefda309052235aa5d1e99ce7557010"
SRC_URI = "${GNU_MIRROR}/hello/hello-${PV}.tar.bz2"
inherit autotools //This doesn't work at do_install step while bitbake.
***************************************************************************************************************
Even i have observed few things which you may be surprised,
* The same do_install() error appeared when i was trying one more recipe which also used autotools. Obviously i cross checked for how i wrote a recipe but it was okay.
* The toolchain 1.7.1 (poky) does not compile helloworld.
i.e
arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc -o hello hello.c ---does not work.
NOTE: Here i have to use AUTOTOOLS to cross compile.
* But toolchain 1.4.1(poky) does above step without the need of autotools.
What are these issues please explain.
Regards,
Manju
