Quoting my first email: >> All you need to do, >>is include meta-oe in your layers (bblayers.conf) and have >> protobuf-native listed in DEPENDS inside your package recipe. DEPENDS lists build time dependencies, like libraries, tools etc. protobuf-native, by convention, means that the package was built for your build host. This enables you to run protoc during the build to generate proper language bindings. > > So never mind. > > I still have another question :-) > > I am about to create another recipe for the gprc library for C++, to > build it on my local machine has been pretty simple: > > $ git clone -b $(curl -L http://grpc.io/release) > https://github.com/grpc/grpc > $ cd grpc > $ git submodule update --init > $ make > $ [sudo] make install > > The recipe I have created so far would clone/checkout the source code > from a GIT repo or something similar and then the build process could > start straight away. > > In my case I have an additional step: > > git submodule update --init > There's a submodule fetcher, when setting SRC_URI use `gitsm://` instead of `git://` see https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.1/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual.html#gitsm-fetcher for details.
