Do you mean that you want the compiler in the target image?

If so, add:
   IMAGE_INSTALL += "packagegroup-core-buildessential"
to your conf/local.conf file.

FYI, I looked-up that up in WR's distro feature:
 
https://github.com/WindRiver-OpenSourceLabs/wr-base/blob/LB21_7.0_RCPL0002/templates/feature/target-toolchain/image.inc
since I know it well. :)

I didn't quickly find it in the YP manual:
   http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.2/mega-manual/mega-manual.html
but it should be there.
