Andrew Bradford 35081f5518 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Addeds support for the Perforce Fetcher
Added a new Perforce Fetcher section in the same spirit as the existing
sections for other supported fetchers.  Changes included the new section,
removal of the bulleted item that mentioned this fetcher as an
"additional" fetcher, and the creation of a new variable in the glossary
named P4DIR.

Documentation

This is the directory that contains the BitBake documentation.

Manual Organization

Folders exist for individual manuals as follows:

  • bitbake-user-manual - The BitBake User Manual

Each folder is self-contained regarding content and figures.

If you want to find HTML versions of the BitBake manuals on the web, go to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Documentation.

Makefile

The Makefile processes manual directories to create HTML, PDF, tarballs, etc. Details on how the Makefile work are documented inside the Makefile. See that file for more information.

To build a manual, you run the make command and pass it the name of the folder containing the manual's contents. For example, the following command run from the documentation directory creates an HTML and a PDF version of the BitBake User Manual. The DOC variable specifies the manual you are making:

 $ make DOC=bitbake-user-manual

template

Contains various templates, fonts, and some old PNG files.

tools

Contains a tool to convert the DocBook files to PDF format.
