Calling sys.exit() in the middle of the code is rather antisocial. We catch this in various places but we shouldn't have to. In all these cases we have already sent events explaining to the user what happened. This means the correct exception is BBHandledException. The recent startup changes have moved the point a lot of this code gets called to inside the UI, with memres it would have always been possible from there anyway. This change makes things much more consistent. (Bitbake rev: 91699f366d24480ff3b19faec78fb9f3181b3e14) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
Bitbake
=======
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
html version at the Yocto Project website:

Please refer to
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
