Move Tool logic out of Toolchain This sets up the ability for tools to self-manage and dispatch, and replaces the ToolType enum with the more dynamic tool name constant. This is part of the Tool refactoring to allow for additional sets of tools to be added, enabling support for new languages to be added. Same as in the previous patch, this unfortunately requires touching a bunch of files since the enum is prevalent.

GN is a meta-build system that generates build files for Ninja. There is documentation in docs/ and a presentation on it.
You can download the latest version of GN binary for Linux, macOS and Windows.
Alternatively, you can build GN from source:
git clone https://gn.googlesource.com/gn cd gn python build/gen.py ninja -C out # To run tests: out/gn_unittests
On Windows, it is expected that cl.exe
, link.exe
, and lib.exe
can be found in PATH
, so you'll want to run from a Visual Studio command prompt, or similar.
On Linux and Mac, the default compiler is clang++
, a recent version is expected to be found in PATH
. This can be overridden by setting CC
, CXX
, and AR
.
If you find a bug, you can see if it is known or report it in the bug database.
GN uses Gerrit for code review. The short version of how to patch is:
Register at https://gn-review.googlesource.com. ... edit code ... ninja -C out && out/gn_unittests
Then, to upload a change for review:
git commit git cl upload --gerrit
When revising a change, use:
git commit --amend git cl upload --gerrit
which will add the new changes to the existing code review, rather than creating a new one.
