Summary


In this chapter, we learned that the Yocto Project can be used for development as well as for image creation. We learned how to create two types of toolchains, image-based and generic, how to use them, and how to create a development image in order to build and deploy our application on the target machine. In addition, we learned how we can use Eclipse in the development phase to write, build, and debug our applications.

In the next chapter, we will look at how we can configure Poky to help us in the debugging process, how we can configure our system to provide the required tools for a remote debug using GDB, how we can track our changes using buildhistory, and how we can use a handy tool called devshell.
