You can generate the Visual Studio projects by running gyp_skia, as follows: |
+ (setup GYP_GENERATORS, see just below) |
cd %SKIA_CHECKOUT_DIR% |
python gyp_skia |
-This will produce Visual Studio projects in the `%SKIA_CHECKOUT_DIR%\out` directory. |
+If you like to develop from a fully-integrated Visual Studio, set |
+GYP_GENERATORS=ninja,msvs-ninja before running gyp_skia to generate |
+Visual-Studio-compatible project files that still ultimately build using ninja, |
+or set it to msvs to use Visual Studio's own (slower) build system. If you are |
+comfortable with and prefer running ninja yourself, GYP_GENERATORS=ninja is |
+considerably faster than the other two options. |
Build and run tests from the command line |
