+The files in this directory, except for src/, boringssl_dart.gyp, and |
+boringssl_configurations.gypi, are generated from the checkout of |
+boringssl in src/, by running the script |
+src/util/generate_build_files.py chromium. |
+ |
+That script is maintained by the chromium team, to make a gyp build |
+of boringssl that does not require go or perl. We modify the main |
+gyp file of this build, boringssl.gyp, to add configurations for |
+the target architectures, creating boringssl_dart.gyp. |
+ |
+When updating boringssl in Dart, delete this directory, |
+and check out the new boringssl to src. Then run the script, check out |
+our two files boringssl_dart.gyp and boringssl_configurations.gypi and commit |
+the changes and any added or deleted files, as well as a change to the |
+boringssl revision in DEPS. If there are changes in boringssl.gyp, |
+consider making similar changes to boringssl_dart.gyp |
+Test the changes on all platforms before committing, of course. |
