<title>binconfig</title>
<para>The binconfig class is for packages that install
<command><pkg>-config</command> scripts that provide information about
the build settings for the package. It's usually provided by libraries which
and is used by other packages to determine various compiler options.</para>
<para>Since the script is used at build time it is required to be copied
into the staging area. All the actions performed by the class are appended
to the <emphasis>do_stage</emphasis> task.</para>
<para>The actions performed by the binconfig class are:</para>
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Copies the <command><x>-config</command> script from the
package into <command>${STAGING_BINDIR} </command>directory;</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>If the package is not native then it modifies the contents of the
<command><x>-config</command> script in the staging area to ensure
that all the paths in the script refer to the staging area;</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>If the package is native then
the<command><x>-config</command> script is renamed to
<command><x>-config-native</command> to ensure that the native and
non-native versions do not interfere with each other.</para>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
<para>A package is considered to be native it also inherits the native
class.</para>
<para>The class will search in <command>${S}</command>, and all it's
subdirectories, for files that end in <command>-config</command> and process
them as described above. All that is required to use the class is the
addition of binconfig in an inherit statement:</para>
<para><screen>inherit autotools binconfig</screen></para>
