+ The BitBake command line supports specifying different
+ tasks for individual targets when you specify multiple
+ targets.
+ For example, suppose you had two targets (or recipes)
+ <filename>myfirstrecipe</filename> and
+ <filename>mysecondrecipe</filename> and you needed
+ BitBake to run <filename>taskA</filename> for the first
+ recipe and <filename>taskB</filename> for the second
+ recipe:
+ <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+ $ bitbake myfirstrecipe recipe:do_taskA mysecondrecipe recipe:do_taskB
+ </literallayout>
