[meta-freescale] Native package building

[Alberto Liberal de los Rios]

Hi



Maybe someone of you can help me with one question (I have searched a lot of info, but nothing that clarifies it to me). I am compiling zlib 1.2.7 with the next recipe:



SUMMARY = "Zlib Compression Library"

DESCRIPTION = "Zlib is a general-purpose, patent-free, lossless data compression \ library which is used by many different programs."

HOMEPAGE = "http://zlib.net/"

SECTION = "libs"

LICENSE = "Zlib"

LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://zlib.h;beginline=4;endline=23;md5=94d1b5a40dadd127f3351471727e66a9<file:///\\zlib.h;beginline=4;endline=23;md5=94d1b5a40dadd127f3351471727e66a9>"



SRC_URI = "http://www.zlib.net/${BPN}-${PV}.tar.bz2 \

           file://remove.ldconfig.call.patch<file:///\\remove.ldconfig.call.patch> \

           "

SRC_URI[md5sum] = "2ab442d169156f34c379c968f3f482dd"

SRC_URI[sha256sum] = "49e2e9658dfb036900da6ea0267a737fa3c4eee6666776d378c79d52e9334934"



do_configure (){

                ./configure --prefix=${prefix} --shared --libdir=${libdir} }



do_compile (){

                oe_runmake

}



do_install() {

                oe_runmake DESTDIR=${D} install

}



BBCLASSEXTEND = "native nativesdk"





I have a doubt about the need of "native nativesdk" If I understand well the building of this package depends of a zlib native building on the host, therefore the "native".  Is it needed to build the package on the host? If I build zlib using the meta-toolchain outside of yocto is not needed any host building of the library. If I remove BBCLASSEXTEND of the recipe, I have errors during Yocto building What´s the difference between native & nativesdk?



Many thanks in advance



Alberto
