toaster configuration variables

toaster configuration variables

[Timur Aydin]

Hi,

I am using yocto version 1.6.2 Daisy branch to build a linux 
distribution for the imx6 processor.

I have started the toaster prior to the build and after the build is 
done, I have examined the bitbake configuration variables. It looks like 
the variable values displayed by the toaster are different from the 
variable values displayed when using bitbake -e myimage > a.txt

The variable I am seeing different is the DISTRO_FEATURES variable. The 
value that toaster displays seems to be the default value of this 
variable, whereas the bitbake -e output shows the correct actual value.

Also the IMAGE_INSTALL variable does not exist in the toaster user 
interface, whereas it does exist in the bitbake -e output.

What could be the problem? Is toaster experimental at this time?

Hi Timur, 

Currently Toaster only shows the output of 'bitbake -e' (i.e. the global
context), not the output of 'bitbake -e recipe_name' (i.e. the recipe
context).

I wouldn't call it 'experimental', just 'young' :)
