Thanks Eric for your explanation!
* (I know I can build the app within yocto build, but sometimes I
prefer the SDK method outside yocto build.)
* So just copy manually? I thought there are some tricks that I don't
know.
Acutally that's how we are doing it ...
Now I have follow-up question:
* It seems that "make install" will copy different files to different
folders
* Can I do like these:?
--- make
--- copy (via scp)
--- make install
* Or it needs to be:
--- make
--- make install
Install the cross-compiled stuff on your local disc e.g. into a
"transfer" directory. Then copy it to the target.
On the target 'cp -Rfa <transfer-dir>/* /' should do it if the basic
directory structure fits to your rootFS.
--- copy (via scp) -----then how do I know: what files to go which
folder?
--- can you explain:
"... you may supply a custom install prefix directory to configure."
--- how?
There is IMHO no standardized variable available. Just look into the
configure script how the variable is named and if it is actually
available at all.
Thanks!

Hi Jerry,

I am new to embedded linux, and some concepts confuse me:
* I have downloaded an Autotools-based application to run on my board.
* If I boot the board with original image/original SDK, I normally
build/install it with steps:
----- ./bootstrap
----- ./configure
----- make
----- make install
You may build your app within yocto build process so your application
is contained in your rootFS directly.
* Now if I boot the board with yocto image without SDK, how can I
deploy the application?
---- (surely I do "bitbake -c populate_sdk some-image", and source the
environment!)
----- ./bootstrap (Yocto SDK on host)
----- ./configure (Yocto SDK on host)
----- make (Yocto SDK on host)
----- make install (???)
If you build it w/ the SDK outside of the yocto build process just
install it to a local directory and copy all the stuff w/ e.g. scp onto
your boards rootFS.
... you may supply a custom install prefix directory to configure.
* How to do "make install"? (I want to install it on target, but how?)
Thanks!
Cheers
Eric
