4.3.2.6. Updating a Recipe

Use the update-recipe command to cause devtool to update your recipe with patches that reflect changes you make to the source files. For example, if you know you are going to work on some code, you could first use the modify command to extract the code and set up the workspace. After which, you could modify, compile, and test the code in its own layer to which it was extracted. When you are satisfied with the results you can then run the update-recipe to create the patches and update the recipe in the external layer:

     $ devtool update-recipe recipe
                

Note

For complete syntax, use the devtool update-recipe ‐‐help command.
