947 The image types (<filename>image-types</filename>) class defines all of
948 the standard image output types that you can enable through the
949 <link linkend='var-IMAGE_FSTYPES'><filename>IMAGE_FSTYPES</filename></link>
950 variable.
951 You can use this class as a reference on how to add support for custom
952 image output types.

956 By default, this class is enabled through the
957 <link linkend='var-IMAGE_CLASSES'><filename>IMAGE_CLASSES</filename></link>
958 variable in
959 <link linkend='ref-classes-image'><filename>image.bbclass</filename></link>.
960 If you define your own image types using a custom BitBake class and
961 then use <filename>IMAGE_CLASSES</filename> to enable it, the custom
962 class must either inherit <filename>image-types</filename> or
963 <filename>image-types</filename> must also appear in
964 <filename>IMAGE_CLASSES</filename>.
