[JZ] For using RSE, you don't need java for the target image, but you do need to add tcf-agent which facilitate the remote communication underline RSE, on the host side, the tcf plugin will communicate with the remote tcf-agent for all the related remote interactions. We have a tcf_agent recipe file which you can use to add it to the image. _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
