Re: import a layer directory problem

["Reyna, David" <david.reyna@windriver.com>]

Hi Stéphane,

You have to build a project with the imported layer before Toaster know anything. Since this layer did not come from the Layer Index (with all the metadata provided), Toaster has to derive the layer information from bitbake events as the project builds.

If after a build you still do not see information, then please file a defect.

Alternatively, if you want to see the layer data immediately when it is imported (e.g. you use this layer in different Toaster instances and/or you are sharing the layer with others) and you do not mind being clever (e.g. doing a hack), you can add the layer information explicitly to "toaster/orm/fixtures/custom.xml". The new updates to the Toaster Manual 2.4 has information about this in the just-completed "Customize Toaster" section.

Subject: [Toaster] import a layer directory problem

hi,

I have got some problems trying to import a layer :

I first copied the meta-skeleton layer in a directory named test (inside the OS running toaster)

then in toaster, I setted the pathname of my layer directory.

I can sea my layer name in available layers , but inside there is no summary/description/recipes available ....like it was not added....

Regards,

Stéphane ANCELOT
