This patch is to remember layers and settings between Hob sessions, which includes: - Put some variables for the build details screen from Configuration to Parameters because they are not actually for build but for show - We create a dummy Configuration instance and a dummy Parameters instance in __init__ of builder - The two instances will be assigned the real values by update_configuration_parameters() after parsing (in the event callback) - When it is the first time to launch Hob in a build directory, nothing is remembered since everything is fresh. - The feature is implemented with templates, and based on the hook for Hob. - When the user changes the layers or the settings, a default template file is saved into ".hob/". - Later on, the layers and the settings are remembered by loading the default template automatically.

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/community/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.
