This bug needs more information. What part of the hob/bitbake interaction needs to be clarified/improved?
Comment 2 Bogdan Marinescu 2013-01-22 14:37:49 UTC
Switching to "NEEDINFO" (see my previous question).
Comment 3 Jessica 2013-01-28 22:26:58 UTC
Bogdan,

THis will be covered in our overall design for bitbake to better support client/server architecture.  We need a well designed (if in place) and documented abstract API layer for client to interact with bitbake server.
Comment 4 Bogdan Marinescu 2013-01-31 13:57:32 UTC
As discussed with Jessica and Richard, the current API is most likely generic enough for what we're trying to achieve. Its documentation should be improved, but that's the subject for another bug, so I'm closing this one.
Comment 5 Mihai Lindner 2013-04-09 13:52:51 UTC
Not a bug.
