Yocto and ccache

Yocto and ccache

[Søren Holm]

Hi

I've search the manual and  google for some time now in relation to yocto and 
ccache. So the question is now:

How to I make yocto utilize ccache - it does not seem to do it on it's own?

I don't think it's necessary to explicitly use ccache since the OE/Yocto
framework already provides a sstate.bbclass which implements this sort
of logic and is designed to work better with the sorts of things bitbake
does:

Yes, it does only cache complete compiled and packed recipes. My workflow will 
many times be tat I compile the same software with minor changes. And since it 
is always from scratch it will always take the same amount of time. Basically 
I use Jenkins for rebuilding my image and specific recipes are then tracking a 
branch in my application.
