New page

The OpenEmbedded (OE) manual introduces Bitbake recipes using a single 'helloworld' tutorial. While this is a useful introduction, there are many other common use cases.

==Hello World==
The tar file attached [file://user.collection.tar.gz here] contains a user.collections directory complete with a number of sample helloworld recipes elucidating different use cases. An explanation for each is given below:
<table>
<tr>
<th>Recipe:</th><th>Description:</th><th>Command:</th>
</tr><tr>
<td>myhelloworld</td><td>vanilla OE helloworld tutorial</td><td>myhelloworld</td>
</tr><tr>
<td>myhello-cpp</td><td>a simple C++ recipe</td><td>myhello-cpp<td>
</tr><tr>
<td>myhello-make</td><td>a recipe that uses a Makefile</td><td>myhello-make<td>
</tr><tr>
<td>myhello-cmake</td><td>a recipe that uses cmake and creates a library</td><td>myhello-cmake<td>
</tr><tr>
<td>myhello-python</td><td>a rather trivial python recipe</td><td>myhello-python<td>
</tr><tr>
<td>myhello-git</td><td>shows git fetcher and patching</td><td>myhello-git<td>
</tr>
</table.
==Usage==
# [file://file.tar.gz Download] and untar this folder in your top-level OE direvictory. For the sake of these instructions, we assume this is '~/overo-oe'.
#:<pre>$ tar xzf file.tar.gx -C ~/overo-oe/ </pre>
# Bitbake the desired recipe based on its recipe name e.g. ''bitbake myhello-cpp''
# Copy the newly created package file from your build machine to your Gumstix. You might do this by transfering the files on microSD card, using a serial connection, or, most simply, copying them over an internet connection. E.g.
#:<pre>$ scp ~/overo-oe/tmp/deploy/glibc/ipk/armv5te/myhelloworld_0.0.1-r0.5_armv5te.ipk root@mygumstixcom:~ </pre>
# Install your package and test it out:
#:<pre>> opkg install myhelloworld_0.0.1-r0.5_armv5te.ipk </pre>
#:<pre>> myhelloworld </pre>
#:<pre>Hello, World! </pre>

There are lots of use cases not covered here, feel free to add new or request new ones.
