i've never defined a multiconfig build, but this section explaining<br>
it in the BB user manual seems confusing:<br>
<br>
///// start<br>
<br>
The following statement in the local.conf file both enables BitBake to<br>
perform multiple configuration builds and specifies the two extra<br>
multiconfigs:<br>
<br>
BBMULTICONFIG = "target1 target2"<br>
<br>
Once the target configuration files are in place and BitBake has been<br>
enabled to perform multiple configuration builds, use the following<br>
command form to start the builds:<br>
<br>
$ bitbake [mc:multiconfigname:]target [[[mc:multiconfigname:]target] ... ]<br>
<br>
Here is an example for two extra multiconfigs: target1 and target2:<br>
<br>
$ bitbake mc::target mc:target1:target mc:target2:target<br>
<br>
///// end<br>
<br>
i don't understand the "mc::target" part of that last command, as it<br>
does not seem to be compatible with the definition of the general form<br>
of the command just above that, specifically:<br>
<br>
$ bitbake [mc:multiconfigname:]target ...<br>
<br>
can someone clarify this?<br></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">"target" is the recipe you want to build, just as you would have specified if you were not using a "mc:multiconfig:" prefix.
