* ref-manual: Added note about bb.fatal() raising an exception.Scott Rifenbark2016-10-111-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #10363] Added a small note to the bullet item about bb.fatal(). Noted that the function raises an exception so the user does not have to put a "return" statement after the function call.

Also, suggested filing bugs against the docs if a feature is too hard to find or figure out.

In doing so, many manuals were affected due to section headings being renamed, information being moved, etc. Here is a list of the changes by manual: Makefile - Removed two figures from TARFILE list for the yocto-project-qs. Added building-an-image.png to the ref-manual TARFILE list. Added using-a-pre-build-image.png to the adt-manual TARFILE list. Repositioned 'eclipse' in the adt-manual TARFILE list. adt-manual: Fixed a cross-reference so that it goes to the new 'Building Images' section that is within the YP QS. Added new section 'Example Using Pre-Build Binaries and QEMU' to hold the information that was formerly in YP QS. dev-manual: Removed a cross-reference into the YP QS that promised how to configure the most efficent build. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'The Packages' to 'The Build System Packages'. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Building an Image' to 'Building Images'. Changed a text reference from the YP QS to the adt-manual. Moved the bit about getting YP files by using the YP website from the YP QS to the dev-manual. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Using Pre-Built Binaries and QEMU' to 'Example Using Pre-built Binaries and QEMU', which was moved to the adt-manual. ref-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'. Moved the note about if your system has oss4-dev in the packages area in the YP QS to the appropriate area in the ref-manual. Moved the introduction information regarding building an image along with the figure from YP QS to the ref-manual's section on building images. toaster-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'. yocto-project-qs: Complete rewrite that changed many section headings and removed much detail, which was placed in other manuals.

* ref-manual: Updated text for speeding up builds.Scott Rifenbark2015-02-171-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "Speeding Up the Build" section presents a list of items the user can consider when they want to tweak the build speed. One of the items is the three variables BB_NUMBER_THREADS, BB_NUMBER_PARSE_THREADS, and PARALLEL_MAKE. It was noted that the system figures out the optimal settings for these now and it is pretty useless to override the settings. However, the introducing sentence to the list is still valid due to other considerations that go beyond these three variables. So, to update the text, I have re-emphasized the role of these three variables for quickening the build time. Reported-by: Robert P. J.

* ref-manual: Edits to "Running Specific Tasks"Scott Rifenbark2014-03-251-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Paul Eggleton noted that the output to bitbake <target> -c listtasks was documented as going to a specific file only when in fact it also goes to the console. I updated the section to include that fact.

* ref-manual: Edits to "Understanding What the Build History Contains" section.Scott Rifenbark2014-03-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The opening sentence here said that the build history is kept in the $TMPDIR/buildhistory directory in the Build Directory as defined by the BUILDHISTORY_DIR variable. Well, the variable claims it is kept in $TOPDIR/buildhistory. I went with the variable as the correct source. So, I changed the intro sentence here.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Removed the bit about isolating SDK information. Also removed the workaround and text regarding the limitation that caused adding and removing INHERIT += "buildhistory" to re-execute tasks. Added a few links to some newly documented variables.

| | | | | | | | | | | I modified a few areas to help integrate some newly documented BUILDHISTORY_* variables. Mostly some rewriting to feature some variables that help the user select build history features.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | In the "Dependency Graphs" section, the pn-buildlist file was not mentioned as a file generated by the 'bitbake -g <target>' command.

* ref-manual: Cleaned up some instances of the term "working directory"Scott Rifenbark2013-12-031-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This term should always reference a users current working directory and not be confused with the OpenEmbedded build system's "work directory (WORKDIR). I found several instances where the term "working directory" was not used correctly and fixed them. Reported-by: Robert P. J.
