This can make it print clearer errors, for exmaple:
Add Runtime_error to 'def oe_import(d)"
16 def oe_import(d):
17 import sys
18 Runtime_error
[snip]
* Before the patch:
$ bitbake -p
ERROR: Unable to parse /buildarea1/lyang1/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/data_smart.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/buildarea1/lyang1/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/data_smart.py", line 430, in DataSmart.expandWithRefs(s='${@oe_import(d)}', varname='OE_IMPORTED[:=]'):
except Exception as exc:
> raise ExpansionError(varname, s, exc) from exc
bb.data_smart.ExpansionError: Failure expanding variable OE_IMPORTED[:=], expression was ${@oe_import(d)} which triggered exception NameError: name 'Runtime_error' is not defined
This error message has two problems:
- "Unable to parse data_smart.py": This isn't the real cause.
- It pionts to "raise ExpansionError(varname, s, exc) from exc" which isn't clear enough.
* After the patch:
$ bitbake -p
ERROR: Unable to parse OE_IMPORTED[:=]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "OE_IMPORTED[:=]", line 1, in <module>
File "/buildarea1/lyang1/poky/meta/classes/base.bbclass", line 18, in oe_import(d=<bb.data_smart.DataSmart object at 0x7f9257e7a0b8>):
import sys
> Runtime_error
bb.data_smart.ExpansionError: Failure expanding variable OE_IMPORTED[:=], expression was ${@oe_import(d)} which triggered exception NameError: name 'Runtime_error' is not defined
This one is more clearer than before.

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
