[yocto] Can't get *.a's into SDK sysroot

[Greg Wilson-Lindberg]

I've created a recipe for Canfestival (a CAN bus CANOpen support library). I have had it building for a while, but I had the configuration set up to build all parts of it as .so's. I need to change it so that parts of the library are .a's. My problem is that I can't get the .a's to copy to the SDK sysroot /usr/lib directory. The .a's are in the canfestival image/usr/lib & sysroot-destdir/usr/lib directories, but nothing that I've tried has gotten them to the SDK sysroot.



Here is the canfestival_3-asc.bb file that I'm using:



SUMMARY = "Independent CANOpen(r) stack"

DESCRIPTION = "CanFestival focuses on providing an ANSI-C platform independent \

               CANOpen(r) stack that can be built as master or slave nodes on PCs, \

               Real-time IPCs, and Microcontrollers."



HOMEPAGE = "http://www(dot)canfestival(dot)org/<http://www%20(dot)%20canfestival%20(dot)%20org/>" // obfuscated to get past our email system



SRCREV = "895:8973dd8be7e8"



SRC_URI = "hg://bitbucket.org/Mongo;protocol=https;module=canfestival-3-asc \

           file://canfestival_3-asc-configure.patch<file:///\\canfestival_3-asc-configure.patch> \

           "

PR = 'r01'



LICENSE = "LGPLv2"

LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://COPYING;md5=46ec399d3928b6c91e3634ab7263af44 \

                    file://LICENCE;md5=085e7fb76fb3fa8ba9e9ed0ce95a43f9<file:///\\LICENCE;md5=085e7fb76fb3fa8ba9e9ed0ce95a43f9>"



TARGET_CC_ARCH += "${LDFLAGS}"







do_configure() {

    bbplain "Starting Configure"

    #bbplain "rootfs: ${D}"

    ./configure --target=unix --prefix=${D}/usr/ --can=socket --timers=unix  --SDO_MAX_SIMULTANEOUS_TRANSFERS=30 --SDO_MAX_LENGTH_TRANSFER=4096 --MAX_NB_TIMER=128 --SDO_TIMEOUT_MS=3000 --debug="WAR"



    bbplain "Configure Done"

}



do_compile() {

    oe_runmake canfestival

}



do_install() {

    bbplain "Starting Install"

    #bbplain "rootfs: ${D}"

    oe_runmake install PREFIX=${D}/usr/



    bbplain "Install Done"

}



FILES_${PN}-dbg = "/usr/src/debug/canfestival"

FILES_${PN}-dev = "/usr/lib/libcanfestival*.a /usr/include/canfestival/*.h"

FILES_${PN} = "/usr/lib/libcanfestival*.a /usr/lib/libcanfestival*.so"



#PACKAGE_BEFORE_PN = "${PN}-info"

#FILES_${PN}-info = "usr/lib/pkgconfig"


I've fiddled with the various FILES lines, but nothing that I do gets the .a files copied to the SDK sysroot /usr/lib directory.



Any insight into what is going wrong would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks in advance,
