hello. i am a newbie with yocto. i am need to create my custom app. i have gone over a number of tutorials but my app stills fails to be compiled.
i am trying to compile it with the yocto and not the toolchain. i have done as is written in http://variwiki.com/index.php?title=Yocto_Hello_World
1) created a hello.bb file
2) added the directory files and added my hello.c code.
I try and run it with bitbake myhello and i get ERROR: Nothing RPROVIDES 'myhello'. could you tell me what am i missing?
thanks

Hi,

I've tested the given example on the branch Zeus and it works fine.

Here the hierarchy :

[pfontaine@precision recipes-myhello]$ tree -L 3
.
└── myhello
    ├── files
    │   └── myhello.c
    └── myhello.bb

2 directories, 2 files

The error that Bitbake gives you could be because you may have no
"myhello" directory under a recipes directory.

Also, I suggest you to not mix "hello" and "myhello" when you name files.

Hope it will help you to fix your issue.

Pierre Fontaine.
