Hello
I am also interested in how to begin creating Vala apps for SHR and I
am wondering if something like this might work :-
* create directory /home/ben/shr and do "make-setup" etc. for SHR
* create folder /home/ben/shr/my-app
* add my-app.vala source file [1] which prints the text "hello world" then exits
* add my-app.bb recipe also to my-app directory
* cd shr-unstable && . setup-env && bitbake -b /home/ben/shr/my-app/my-app.bb
.. but I am a newbie so don't know what to put inside the recipe [2] :-
DESCRIPTION = "hello world sample program"
PR = "r0"
DEPENDS = ""
SRC_URI = " \
file://my-app.vala \
"
S = "${WORKDIR}"
do_compile () {
valac my-app.vala
}
do_install () {
install -d ${D}${bindir}/
install -m 0755 ${S}/my-app ${D}${bindir}/
}
FILES_${PN} = "${bindir}/my-app"
Am I anywhere close?
Thanks
