cbuild generates too much user output that are distracting.
Take #1537 as an example.
Suggest A Solution
Instead of:
>cbuild setup USB_Device.csolution.yml --packs
error csolution: undefined variables in USB_Device.csolution.yml:
- $Board-Layer$
To resolve undefined variables, copy the settings from cbuild-idx.yml to csolution.yml
error cbuild: error generating build files
error cbuild: exit status 2
Generate:
>cbuild setup USB_Device.csolution.yml --packs
error csolution: undefined variables in USB_Device.csolution.yml:
- $Board-Layer$
info cbuild: to resolve undefined variables, copy settings from cbuild-idx.yml to csolution.yml
error cbuild: error generating build files is misleading, as I would expect that the tool could not write the files because existing files are R/O and therefore write protected.
error cbuild: exit status 2 is not really an error. Instead, I would suggest to output this only with option --verbose as info
