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 in the target. 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 understand how we can configure Poky to help us on the debugging process, how we can configure our system to provide the needed 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.
