<title>The base Class - <filename>base.bbclass</filename></title>
<para>
The base class is special in that every <filename>.bb</filename>
file inherits it automatically.
This class contains definitions for standard basic
tasks such as fetching, unpacking, configuring (empty by default), compiling
(runs any <filename>Makefile</filename> present), installing (empty by default) and packaging
(empty by default).
These classes are often overridden or extended by other classes
such as <filename>autotools.bbclass</filename> or <filename>package.bbclass</filename>.
The class also contains some commonly used functions such as <filename>oe_runmake</filename>.
