-- libdbi-perl --

It defines a set of methods, variables, and conventions that provide
|
a consistent database interface, independent of the actual database
|
being used.

-- libdbd-sqlite-perl --
|
DBD::SQLite is a Perl DBI driver for SQLite, that includes the entire
|
thing in the distribution. So in order to get a fast transaction capable
|
RDBMS working for your perl project you simply have to install this
|
module, and nothing else.
|
|
usage: there is a test case to show you how it works
|
|
1) vim local.conf:
|
...
|
IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " libdbd-sqlite-perl"
|
PERL_DBM_TEST = "1"
|
...
|
2) build core-image-sato and boot the target
|
|
3) run "sqlite-perl-test.pl" on target. This script includes five
|
operations create/insert/update/delete/select to do with a table.
|
|
More information can be found in the recipe's git log.

Adding the meta-perl layer to your build
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
In order to use this layer, you need to make the build system aware of
|
it.
|
|
Assuming the meta-perl layer exists at the top-level of your
|
yocto build tree, you can add it to the build system by adding the
|
location of the meta-perl layer to bblayers.conf, along with any
|
other layers needed. e.g.:
|
|
BBLAYERS ?= " \
|
/path/to/oe-core/meta \
|
/path/to/layer/meta-perl \
|
|
