The 'memres' setup script was removed recently [1] thus the 2.4 final documentation should not reference it. Doing a recursive grep inside yocto-docs, most manuals (adt-manual, bsp-guide, dev-manual, kernel-dev, ref-manual, sdk-manual) have references to this script.

This script is in a lot of places... I will get it out. Thanks.
Assigning to myself.
Can anyone tell me if the BBSERVER (http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.4/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-BBSERVER) variable is now gone as well? I am assuming it is no longer used as oe-init-build-env-memres is out. Scott

Also, the OE_INIT_ENV_SCRIPT (http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.4/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-OE_INIT_ENV_SCRIPT) variable implies multiple setup scripts. Now that we have just the one, is this description appropriate? Or is the variable still used? Scott

CC Paul/RP. Please look this new definition for BBSERVER over and let me know if it is okay - http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.4/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-BBSERVER.

I believe this piece is also useful: "The variable should have the following format and exported as: export BBSERVER=localhost:$port" it gives a nice example of the url syntax (quite known but useful for new users)

If this is good then I believe I can RESOLVE this issue as I have purged the manual set of all "oe-init-build-env-memres" information. Let me know. Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reviews! I am setting to RESOLVED and marking the docs flag as done. Scott
