Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.139 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Create action target with depsformat or description options What is the expected behavior? What went wrong? Options are not recognized and passed to ninja, despite ninja can support it Did this work before? No Chrome version: 66.0.3359.139 Channel: stable OS Version: OS X 10.12.6 Flash Version: depsformat = "msvc" might be useful in various actions based on msvc toolchain: for example in our standalone project we have some includes from idl files, that are resolved on idl/tlb generation, and so tlb should be regenerated if included idls are changed. It is possible to write python wrapper to parse includes manually and generate depsfile, but this is tedious and and it is duplicated work, because midl.exe can accept additional preprocessor options and /showIncludes can be passed description option isn't very useful for single actions, and it won't influence build results, but it may make build progress more neat if a lot of action templates is used

The issue seems to be a feature request. Hence, marking it as untriaged for further inputs from dev team. Thanks...!!

This is not a bindings bug, it's a GN feature request.

Clearing all the release-oriented labels, since this has nothing to do with those. |
