Internally, the <filename>BBCLASSEXTEND</filename>
|
||||||
|
mechanism generates recipe variants by rewriting
|
||||||
|
variable values and applying overrides such as
|
||||||
|
<filename>_class-native</filename>.
|
||||||
|
For example, to generate a native version of a recipe
|
||||||
|
named "foo", a
|
||||||
|
<link linkend='var-DEPENDS'><filename>DEPENDS</filename></link>
|
||||||
|
on "foo" is rewritten to a <filename>DEPENDS</filename>
|
||||||
|
on "foo-native".

||||||

||||||

|
||||||
|
<para>
|
||||||
|
No reparsing, which adds some limitations, of the
|
||||||
|
recipe is done for each variant.
|
||||||
|
For example, it is not possible to "include" a
|
||||||
|
different file depending on the variant, since
|
||||||
|
"include's" are processed when the recipe is parsed.
