[yocto] How to add my own c++ project into a Yocto distro

[Daniel.]

I'm building libraries at my work with plain makefiles and getting the
code from SVN. There is no secret just follow the docs... One thing to
know is about compiling using run_oemake instead of simple "make" at
do_compile and that you may want to use CFLAGS_prefix = "some flags".
Dependencies should be added to DEPENDS_${PN} and running dependencies
to RDEPEND. Also you should remeber that Yocto will try to run
parallel builds so is a nice testing running make -j4 or make -j8 or
whatever you want, just to make sure that your Makefile is supporting
parallel building fine. If you want to inhibit parallel build at all
you can use .NOPARALLEL pseudo target, but this may make things
slower. I hope this helps,

Best regards and good lucky!
