bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: key-expansion: Don't refer to overrides

2019-09-10T14:18:06+00:00

Nowadays bitbake applies overrides dynamically, not at a single specific point in time during parsing. (Bitbake rev: 218431b0f7c97764cb2c0b79a3aadfe2007f490b) Signed-off-by: Jacob Kroon Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Correct description for _append/_prepend/_remove

2019-09-10T14:18:06+00:00

The effects of _append/_prepend/_remove are applied when a variable is expanded, not after parsing has completed. (Bitbake rev: f9b67433cb4fe5132ab2cf4a9c6bc078b42e1960) Signed-off-by: Jacob Kroon Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: poky.ent: Removed "ECLIPSE" entity variables.

2019-04-12T22:01:26+00:00

These have never been used in the BB manual and were an artifact from copy-and-pasting the poky.ent file from the main yocto-docs repo to this bb repo when the BB manual was origially created. They are useless. I have removed them. (Bitbake rev: 3aaf8d6569beeee35ef9dc5021c4b1c2b6db7266) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Created unique tags for glossary variables.

2018-12-27T13:08:30+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #12399] The bug was to get the BitBake User Manual into the YP Mega-manual. All the changes here create unique tags used with variables in the BitBake Manual. Prior to the fix, tags were identical between like variables in the YP reference manual and the BitBake User Manual. The reason for this is because when I created the BitBake manual's glossary, it was a cut-and-paste operation to get the bulk of the work started. At the time, the BitBake User Manual was not a part of the Mega-manual. Once we decided to include the BitBake User Manual as part of the Mega-Manual, building the mega-manual produced warnings for all these duplicate links. To fix, I have updated the variable tags in the BitBake User Manual to use the following form: 'var-bb-' The tags used in the YP ref-manual follow this form (original): 'var-' (Bitbake rev: fb6de2057aae3fbdf37f007d2e47794b332020e1) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Added hard-spacing to "_remove" example.

2018-10-31T21:40:36+00:00

Rendering the manual to its HTML form was collapsing the two leading and four trailing whitespace characters into single whitespace characters. I inserted multiple " " strings to force the spacing to come through. (Bitbake rev: 701f76f773a6e77258f307a4f8e2ec1a8552f6f3) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
