| +# MB - The Meta-Build wrapper
|
| +
|
| +MB is a simple wrapper intended to provide a uniform interface to either
|
| +GYP or GN, such that users and bots can call one script and not need to
|
| +worry about whether a given bot is meant to use GN or GYP.
|
| +
|
| +It supports two main functions:
|
| +
|
| +1. "gen" - the main `gyp_chromium` / `gn gen` invocation that generates the
|
| + Ninja files needed for the build.
|
| +
|
| +2. "analyze" - the step that takes a list of modified files and a list of
|
| + desired targets and reports which targets will need to be rebuilt.
|
| +
|
| +We also use MB as a forcing function to collect all of the different
|
| +build configurations that we actually support for Chromium builds into
|
| +one place, in `//tools/mb/mb_config.pyl`.
