| -The standalone Dart executable uses the NSS library from Mozilla to
|
| -support secure networking connections (SSL and TLS). It uses a copy
|
| -of the library from the Chromium repository, that includes patches
|
| -added by Chromium. We pin this to a fixed revision, using the
|
| -nss_revision variable in all the DEPS files in the deps directory of
|
| -the Dart repository.
|
| -
|
| -This revision should be updated when new security fixes are added to
|
| -NSS, or every few months. The .gyp files in this directory are copies
|
| -of the .gyp files in the Chromium copy of NSS, with changes made to
|
| -account for the configurations and directory structure of the Dart
|
| -repository. Differences between the Chromium versions and the Dart
|
| -versions should be annotated with "# Added by Dart'.
|
| -
|
| -All the files should have a comment saying where the original file is
|
| -in the Chromium repository. To update these files, look at the diff
|
| -between the two revisions in Chromium, and apply the changes manually,
|
| -with any needed modifications, to the Dart copies. Our aim is to keep
|
| -the difference between the Chromium and Dart copies as small as
|
| -possible.
|
| -
|
| -The nss_memio.cc and nss_memio.h files are also taken from Chromium,
|
| -and should be updated at the same time. The os_Linux.s file is new,
|
| -and should not need changing.
|
| -
|
| -The file nss.gyp includes support for disabling compilation of NSS
|
| -using the variable dart_io_support, when building configurations that
|
| -don't use it. NSS compilation is disabled when building Dartium,
|
| -because Chromium includes its own copy, and the build process would
|
| -get confused.
