Integrating QNX toolchain into Bitbake/OpenEmbedded/Yocto as a foreign (external) tool-chain
My company tends to do a fair amount of work in both Linux and QNX. Primarily we use Bitbake/OpenEmbedded/Yocto build
framework to build individual recipes (packages, e.g. libraries, apps, etc...) and ultimately Linux BSP images for
several HW platforms and CPUs. The OpenEmbedded framework supports external (binary) tool-chains (e.g. lke those
provided with QNX's Linux host tools) so my thoughts have been focused on integrating the QNX tool-chain into the
OpenEmbedded/Yocto framwork. Ideally, with suitable recipes and the layering system provided by the framework, it would
seem plausible that I *should* be able to generate QNX executables/libraries/images using this build framework on a
Linux host.
Has anyone out there attempted this? If so, can you share any pointers or a OE/Yocto layer for the QNX toolchain? I
suspect it could be a great option for people (like myself) who do development under both platforms and want to
commonize their build/packaging processes.
