The GYP-based build is now automatic, mandatory, and totally awesome on the Mac.
I just checked in a change to remove our old Xcode projects and have
GYP generate project files for you every time you "gclient sync". If
you participated in the test on Friday, please remove the "hooks"
section from your .gclient file. Project file generation is now
automatic on all Macs via a hook in the DEPS file.
In order to maintain the Mac build now, you must edit the .gyp files
checked in throughout the tree. Some of you have been doing this
already (thanks!) and all of the feedback I've received with respect
to .gyp file maintenance has been very positive. Additional
documentation will be coming soon. In the mean time, you no longer
need to Cc me on reviews involving trivial changes to .gyp files (such
as adding or removing files), although I will keep up with changes to
those files after they've been committed for at least the next week.
If you have more complicated .gyp file changes to make, or you just
want peace of mind, please do send the review to me.
When you make a change to a .gyp file locally and want to regenerate
new Xcode projects, you can use "gclient runhooks --force". This is a
new command that will cause the GYP hook in the DEPS file to run.
Please use this instead of invoking GYP directly as I had previously
advised.
If you have made any local modifications to the old set of Xcode
projects, just revert them.
