  See "gn help buildargs" for an overview of how build arguments work.

  Most operations take a build directory. The build arguments are taken from
  the previous build done in that directory. If a command specifies --args, it
  will override the previous arguments stored in the build directory, and use
  the specified ones.

  The args specified will be saved to the build directory for subsequent
  commands. Specifying --args="" will clear all build arguments.

Formatting

  The value of the switch is interpreted in GN syntax. For typical usage of
  string arguments, you will need to be careful about escaping of quotes.

Examples

  gn gen out/Default --args="foo=\"bar\""

  gn gen out/Default --args='foo="bar" enable=true blah=7'

  gn check out/Default --args=""
    Clears existing build args from the directory.

  gn desc out/Default --args="some_list=[1, false, \"foo\"]"
)";

  Normally GN loads the ".gn"file  from the source root for some basic
  configuration (see "gn help dotfile"). This flag allows you to
  use a different file.

  Note that this interacts with "--root" in a possibly incorrect way.
  It would be nice to test the edge cases and document or fix.

    "--fail-on-unused-args: Treat unused build args as fatal errors.";
const char kFailOnUnusedArgs_Help[] =
    R"(--fail-on-unused-args: Treat unused build args as fatal errors.

  If you set a value in a build's "gn args" and never use it in the build (in
  a declare_args() block), GN will normally print an error but not fail the
  build.

  In many cases engineers would use build args to enable or disable features
  that would sometimes get removed. It would by annoying to block work for
  typically benign problems. In Chrome in particular, flags might be configured
  for build bots in a separate infrastructure repository, or a declare_args
  block might be changed in a third party repository. Treating these errors as
  blocking forced complex multi- way patches to land what would otherwise be
  simple changes.

  In some cases, such concerns are not as important, and a mismatch in build
  flags between the invoker of the build and the build files represents a
  critical mismatch that should be immediately fixed. Such users can set this
  flag to force GN to fail in that case.

  Normally GN will look up in the directory tree from the current directory to
  find a ".gn" file. The source root directory specifies the meaning of "//"
  beginning with paths, and the BUILD.gn file in that directory will be the
  first thing loaded.

  Specifying --root allows GN to do builds in a specific directory regardless
  of the current directory.

Examples

  gn gen //out/Default --root=/home/baracko/src

  gn desc //out/Default --root="C:\Users\BObama\My Documents\foo"

  --runtime-deps-list-file=<filename>

  Where <filename> is a text file consisting of the labels, one per line, of
  the targets for which runtime dependencies are desired.

  See "gn help runtime_deps" for a description of how runtime dependencies are
  computed.

Runtime deps output file

  For each target requested, GN will write a separate runtime dependency file.
  The runtime dependency file will be in the output directory alongside the
  output file of the target, with a ".runtime_deps" extension. For example, if
  the target "//foo:bar" is listed in the input file, and that target produces
  an output file "bar.so", GN will create a file "bar.so.runtime_deps" in the
  build directory.

  If a source set, action, copy, or group is listed, the runtime deps file will
  correspond to the .stamp file corresponding to that target. This is probably
  not useful; the use-case for this feature is generally executable targets.

  The runtime dependency file will list one file per line, with no escaping.
  The files will be relative to the root_build_dir. The first line of the file
  will be the main output file of the target itself (in the above example,
  "bar.so").

  GN runs many threads to load and run build files. This can make debugging
  challenging. Or you may want to experiment with different values to see how
  it affects performance.

  The parameter is the number of worker threads. This does not count the main
  thread (so there are always at least two).
