Hi,
That link explains that the Tizen IDE has integration with GBS:
https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Platform_Development_Using_IDE#GBS_Options_Setting
And although seems to be really focused on tizen 2.X, it includes some
references to Tizen 3.0. That seems to suggests that Tizen IDE/SDK
should work there too.
So, taking all this into account, is that wiki page correct, or as you
suggest it is better to use GBS manually (meaning that the page is
somewhat outdated)?
[Geoffroy] This is a good question, I have seen that page a while ago
but have never tried to actually use it. It would be good to get
confirmation from the Tools team as to how mature/functional that
solution is. All developers/contributors that I know use GBS and MIC
at the command-line.
Well, since my email, then some discussion happening on tizen-ivi, and
this was said on one of those emails:
"Although currently IVI SDK doesn't support native apps(I am not sure if
IVI SDK also need to support native apps in future). It is a key issue
for Tizen SDK(including mobile SDK, wearable SDK, or others)."
So the conclusions is that depends on the profile, and that the wiki
page is somewhat outdated. Is the documentation also JIRA tracked?
Full email:
https://lists.tizen.org/pipermail/dev/2014-October/004758.html
And now something somewhat offtopic, there is one thing that I miss
from the tizen documentation. Although it properly and detailed
explains how to create a new image based on the tizen repositories
locally (using gbs), it is not clear how to create a new native
application, compile and test it on a image, before event suggesting
to integrate it on the Tizen machinery. Or am I wrong and there is a
similar link around that I missed?
[Geoffroy] There isn’t such a wiki page that I’m aware of. The process
to go through would be roughly the following:
-Host your source code in a git repository.
-Prepare the packaging info (aka your spec file) for it (for GBS):
https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines and put it under the
‘packaging/’ folder (in your source code.
-Put your manifest file in ‘packaging’ too (see this wiki page for
more info:
https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Security/Application_installation_and_Manifest)
-Build your code against Tizen using GBS: if successful this will
generate an RPM file that you can then transfer and install in your
Tizen image.
Just note that with Yocto, the packaging information is different and
comes in the form of a recipe that bitbake will use.
That is a really good explanation. Thank you very much. And I think that
it would be good to be included as part of the documentation (not sure
exactly where).
Thanks for your answer
Best regards
