This file is loaded after the # build args (args.gn) for the build directory and after the toplevel ".gn" # file (which points to this file as the build configuration). # # This file will be executed and the resulting context will be used to execute # every other file in the build. So variables declared here (that don't start # with an underscore) will be implicitly global. # ============================================================================= # PLATFORM SELECTION # ============================================================================= # # There are two main things to set: "os" and "cpu". The "toolchain" is the name # of the GN thing that encodes combinations of these things. # # Users typically only set the variables "target_os" and "target_cpu" in "gn # args", the rest are set up by our build and internal to GN. # # There are three different types of each of these things: The "host" # represents the computer doing the compile and never changes. The "target" # represents the main thing we're trying to build. The "current" represents # which configuration is currently being defined, which can be either the # host, the target, or something completely different (like nacl). GN will # run the same build file multiple times for the different required # configuration in the same build. # # This gives the following variables: # - host_os, host_cpu, host_toolchain # - target_os, target_cpu, default_toolchain # - current_os, current_cpu, current_toolchain. # # Note the default_toolchain isn't symmetrical (you would expect # target_toolchain). This is because the "default" toolchain is a GN built-in # concept, and "target" is something our build sets up that's symmetrical with # its GYP counterpart. Potentially the built-in default_toolchain variable # could be renamed in the future. # # When writing build files, to do something only for the host: # if (current_toolchain == host_toolchain) { ... if (target_os == "") { target_os = host_os } if (target_cpu == "") { if (target_os == "android") { # If we're building for Android, we should assume that we want to # build for ARM by default, not the host_cpu (which is likely x64). # This allows us to not have to specify both target_os and target_cpu # on the command line. target_cpu = "arm" } else { target_cpu = host_cpu } } if (current_cpu == "") { current_cpu = target_cpu } if (current_os == "") { current_os = target_os } # ============================================================================= # BUILD FLAGS # ============================================================================= # # This block lists input arguments to the build, along with their default # values. # # If a value is specified on the command line, it will overwrite the defaults # given in a declare_args block, otherwise the default will be used. # # YOU SHOULD ALMOST NEVER NEED TO ADD FLAGS TO THIS FILE. GN allows any file in # the build to declare build flags. If you need a flag for a single component, # you can just declare it in the corresponding BUILD.gn file. # # - If your feature is a single target, say //components/foo, you can put # a declare_args() block in //components/foo/BUILD.gn and use it there. # Nobody else in the build needs to see the flag. # # - Defines based on build variables should be implemented via the generated # build flag header system. See //build/buildflag_header.gni. You can put # the buildflag_header target in the same file as the build flag itself. You # should almost never set "defines" directly. # # - If your flag toggles a target on and off or toggles between different # versions of similar things, write a "group" target that forwards to the # right target (or no target) depending on the value of the build flag. This # group can be in the same BUILD.gn file as the build flag, and targets can # depend unconditionally on the group rather than duplicating flag checks # across many targets. # # - If a semi-random set of build files REALLY needs to know about a define and # the above pattern for isolating the build logic in a forwarding group # doesn't work, you can put the argument in a .gni file. This should be put # in the lowest level of the build that knows about this feature (which should # almost always be outside of the //build directory!). # # Other flag advice: # # - Use boolean values when possible. If you need a default value that expands # to some complex thing in the default case (like the location of the # compiler which would be computed by a script), use a default value of -1 or # the empty string. Outside of the declare_args block, conditionally expand # the default value as necessary. # # - Use a name like "use_foo" or "is_foo" (whatever is more appropriate for # your feature) rather than just "foo". # # - Write good comments directly above the declaration with no blank line. # These comments will appear as documentation in "gn args --list". # # - Don't call exec_script inside declare_args. This will execute the script # even if the value is overridden, which is wasteful. See first bullet. declare_args() { # Set to enable the official build level of optimization.
