OE as development platform

[Christophe Aeschlimann]

Hi,

Thank you for all the efforts you put in OpenEmbedded !

I would like to know what is the most efficient way to work with OpenEmbedded 
when it comes to building an on going source repository. (in this case a linux 
kernel module)

At the moment I have the following and I find it a bit painful :

loop:
Do some changes
Commit to repository
Update *.bb file to take the latest repository revision number
bitbake -crebuild my_module
Upload to development platform
Test
goto loop

I wished I could do the same but without having to commit and update *.bb file 
for every loop. I guess what I need is an exported version of the cross compiler 
and the kernel staging dir build by OE. Is there some documentation about that 
use case ?

Thanks you,

Christophe
