bitbake: doc: Rename user-manual -> bitbake-user-manual

2014-04-21T22:03:18+00:00

This manual gets combined with other manuals and in that context, it helps a lot if its seen as the Bitbake User Manual. Renames are a pain but this is worthwhile so that other docs can correctly be combined with this one. This also clarifies things like google search results which is helpful.

bitbake: user-manual-metadata.xml: Added new section on mapping functions.

2014-04-02T13:15:35+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #5472] Fixes [YOCTO #1973] Created a new section called "Automatically Mapping Functions Within the Context of a Class". This section addresses the EXPORT_FUNCTIONS "operator", which was the last of the adjustments to the variables bug against the BB manual (1973). The related bug (5472) is a general bug against enhancing the BB manual, which this change caps off. The section here was reviewed and approved by Richard Purdie.

2014-03-25T13:23:06+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #5507] I provided further explanation in the "Basic Variable Setting" section to note that trailing and leading blanks are not stripped from a value when set (e.g. VARIABLE = " value"). I added a new section "Null and Blank Setting" explaning that setting a variable to "" and " " are two different things.
