gyp should issue warnings for missing files #90

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Enhancement request. It would be nice if gyp gave warnings for missing files 
when it was building 
the projects.

This would be difficult (if not impossible) to do correctly.  Even if we 
restricted it just to 'sources' lists, some 
sources are generated by other targets and will (correctly) not exist at gyp 
time.  The only way to handle that 
would be to post-process all of the targets, in which case we could spit out a 
warning but without any 
knowledge of the file that contained the missing file reference.

Going to close this as WontFix, but if you have  a possible solution in mind, 
feel free to open a new issue.
