[RFC] File local variables

[RFC] File local variables

[Holger Freyther]

Hey guys,

imagine the following situation, I have the following files:
	foo-native_1.2.3.bb
	foo_1.2.2.bb
	foo_1.2.3.bb
	foo.inc

now I'm forced to keep PR,PE inside the .inc file but in most of our cases we 
have the PR inside the final recipe file. This means when doing a change to 
an inc I need to open all other users to bump the right thing.

Have you experienced this as well?

I have wondered if something like:
	PE_${FN} = "0"
	PR_${FN} = "0"

in each separate file and then some Bitbake magic to build the sum from every 
included file?

comments? Am I just too lazy?

	z.

Clear to this point.

Sure. :)

What is ${FN}?

Can you explain a bit how this is being supposed to being used.
