If a user uses a very old version of Hob and does some work, later on he/she upgrade to the latest version of Hob, because Hob may change the settings (add more config option into the Adv. Settings dialog or remove some), then the old templates are not loadable and workable for the new Hob. Even though the user hasn't save any template before, the Hob could remember the settings between Hob sessions as a default template, (Remember we have a bug to ask Hob remember between sessions?), the new Hob will also load the default template. By adding versions, we can easily to fix the issue. If the versions don't match, Hob will remove the old default template first and initiate a new build, which has very very little impact on the user. (Just can't remember from the previous session after the user upgrades to a new and incompatible Hob) [Yocto #2492] (Bitbake rev: d5dd9a7af9d35c588528f9937430d1ef5de216c6) Signed-off-by: Shane Wang <shane.wang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
Poky
====
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
reference manual which can be found at:
http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
