documentation/dev-manual: Converted to use poky.ent

2012-03-23T14:24:43+00:00

I converted the hard links to use the variables as established in the file poky.ent. Also, Cleaned up some bad text in the term "Yocto Project Files." Looks like a cut-and-paste problem.

documentation/dev-manual: Re-org of topics

2012-03-08T20:08:07+00:00

Several topics in the "Common Tasks" chapter really fit better in the "Newbie" chapter. I moved these sections out. I also combined information from the section on submitting changes from the "Common Tasks" and the "Newbie" chapter to live in the "Newbie" chapter only.

documentation/dev-manual: New Layer section and metadata link anchor

2012-03-08T20:08:06+00:00

The change to the dev-manual-newbie.xml file was minor. I added a link anchor for the term "metadata." The change to the dev-manual-common-tasks.xml was extensive. I have added an entirely new section on layers called "Understanding and Using Layers." The new material has several sub-sections. Information was based on emails from Paul Eggleton.

2012-03-08T20:08:04+00:00

documentation/dev-manual: Fixed YP Build Directory Term

2012-03-08T20:08:00+00:00

Throughout the manual there is a specific term to refer to the YP build directory: "Yocto Project Build Directory." This term was being loosely referred to and was not consisten in linking to the actual term definition in the Terms chapter. All this is fixed.

2012-03-08T20:07:59+00:00

documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-newbie.xml: edits to build dir term

2012-03-08T20:07:54+00:00

I beefed up the definition for the term "Yocto Project Build Directory." I included the TOPDIR role and also expanded the discussion on how it is created and the control the user has over it.
