- The architecture of the machine that runs Application
- Development Toolkit (ADT) items.
- In other words, packages are built so that they will run
- on the target you specify with the argument.
- This implies that you can build out ADT/SDK items that
- run on an architecture other than that of your build host.
- For example, you can use an x86_64-based build host to
- create packages that will run on an i686-based
- SDK Machine.

- You can use "i686" and "x86_64" as possible values for this
- variable.
- The variable defaults to "i686" and is set in the
- <filename>local.conf</filename> file in the
- <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#build-directory'>Build Directory</ulink>.

- You cannot set the <filename>SDKMACHINE</filename>

- If you do, the configuration will not take affect.
