I'll add the dependencies I was complaining about :)
>
John just came by with some questions, so in the interests of sharing
information more widely, here's the executive summary for adding
dependencies you notice missing:
- There's no distinction in gyp between build-time and run-time
dependencies.
- If a target needs something built by another target at build time *or*
run-time, it needs to be added to the (a) 'dependencies' section of the
relevant target's dictionary.
- You refer to another target as a dependency just by name if it's in the
same .gyp file:
'dependencies': [
'other_target',
],
Or by filename.gyp:target if it's in another .gyp file:
'dependencies': [
'../other/other.gyp:other_target',
],
- Other .gyp file names are always specified relative to the .gyp file
you're in.
- If the dependency is only applicable to a single platform (Windows) it
needs to go down in a conditions section, usually towards the bottom of the
target's dictionary:
'conditions': [
['OS=="win"', {
'dependencies': [
'../other/other.gyp:other_target',
],
}],
],
- Yes, navigating the nested dictionaries and lists can drive you a
little bonkers.
Don't hesitate to ask for help or ask questions.
