The problem is, it doesn't doit delirebately,

when I run

bitbake -f -c latest_link myrecipe , it works

when the process is in the tasks batch running
bitbake myrecipe
it doesn't
What am I doing wrong ?

Whoa,

That's great! However I modified it, so the link will be relative

The problem is that it works until you have sstate cache empty, because after that it doesn't fetch and unpack when already have it in

do_latest_link() {
    if [ -n "${WORKDIR}" ]; then
        linkname="$(basename $(dirname ${WORKDIR}))/latest"
        rm -f $linkname
        ln -s ${WORKDIR} $linkname
    fi
}
addtask latest_link after do_unpack

Let's say I have my package at

      host-64/tmp/work/x86_64-poky-linux/mypackage/1.2.3-r4/

I would like to have symlink created

      host-64/tmp/work/x86_64-poky-linux/mypackage/latest -> 1.2.3-r4/

each time the new version is fetched and unpacked. How can I achieve
that ? Which class, task should I append, extend ?

Optionally, I would like to have that for all packages or at least
packages in my meta.


P.S. I asked the same question here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35158764/where-should-i-append-yocto-bitbake-task-to-
create-work-folder-symlink

Put that into a class in your layer, ex. latest-link.bbclass (untested):

do_latest_link() {
    if [ -n "${WORKDIR}" ]; then
        linkname="$(dirname ${WORKDIR})/latest"
        rm -f $linkname
        ln -s ${WORKDIR} $linkname
    fi
}
addtask latest_link after do_unpack


If you want that applied to all the recipes then add INHERIT += "latest-link" in your local.conf. The other way is just to 'inherit latest-link' in individual recipes.
