[Android] Makefile regen rule doesn't work #282

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
This means that the generated makefiles aren't portable. Is portability a goal 
of gyp-generated makefiles? Do other backends have the same problem?

Makefile regeneration is currently not used by Chromium on Android, so this is 
low priority.

Having looked into this more, it seems like actually the makefile regeneration 
rules have a lot more problems than this (they don't always get generated to 
the right place, either) and since we aren't using this support and aren't 
likely to ever need it for WebView it's probably simplest to just delete this 
code from the backend. Retitling bug appropriately.

Support for makefile regeneration has been disabled in gyp r1545.
