Thanks for the idea of using BBPATH. my change is kind of custom and I don't think someone else will make use of it. Cheers On Tue, May 26, 2020 at 4:42 PM Quentin Schulz <quentin.schulz@...> wrote: Hi Ayoub, |

Hi, I would like to make changes on systemd.bblcass in my layer.aside from whether there is a good way to do this, this seems to be a really bad idea since recipes that inherit what they *think* is the systemd class file will be getting something different; that's just inviting all sorts of unintended bugs. rday |

Hi Ayoub,

You can either make sure your layer is parsed before the one having the original systemd.bbclass (in BBLAYERS of conf/bblayers.conf) or prepend to BBPATH instead of appending. Although... It's usually bad practice because it means that if I were to use two layers doing the same thing (overriding the same bbclass), the behavior is kind of undefined depending on which order they are parsed. Ideally, you should contribute back the modifications to upstream systemd.bbclass, that way, no need to duplicate it and override it from somewhere else.

Hi, I would like to make changes on systemd.bblcass in my layer. I can create new one e.g my-systemd.bbclass to overwrite the default one but this will not work since I want that ALL recipes in all layers I'm using to make usage of it. are there ways to achieve this? Thank you ! Cheers |
