1235 Specifies each separate configuration when you are
1236 building targets with multiple configurations.
1237 Use this variable in your
1238 <filename>conf/local.conf</filename> configuration file.
1239 Specify a <replaceable>multiconfigname</replaceable> for
1240 each configuration file you are using.
1241 For example, the following line specifies three
1242 configuration files:
1243 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1244 BBMULTIFONFIG = "configA configB configC"
1245 </literallayout>
1246 Each configuration file you use must reside in the
1247 <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#build-directory'>Build Directory's</ulink>
1248 <filename>conf/multiconfig</filename> directory
1249 (e.g.
