[yocto] How to generate a debug version of a single application and deploy it into the image?

[S.Jaritz at esa-grimma.de]

Hej

Some software can be only tested on the final system. For that it would be 
usefull to start with a debug version of that app and change it later to 
release.

In my case I have a software which do logging. The amount of the logs 
depends on type of the build (Release skips all debug messages). Let's 
assume that my recipe for the software(myApp) is called myApp.bb. It is 
downloaded from an external git source and build through cmake.

Some idea how to do that?

Below the pseudo recipe as a starting point:
### myApp.bb ###
SUMMARY = "my App"
SECTION = "my"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"

inherit cmake

DEPENDS = "libconfig libg3log"

SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"
SRC_URI = "gitsm://myGitSrv/myApp;protocol=http;branch=develop"

PVBASE := "${PV}"
PV = "${PVBASE}.${SRCPV}"

S = "${WORKDIR}/git/"

BBCLASSEXTEND = "native nativesdk"
