5 # This file introduces two related templates that act like action and
6 # action_foreach but instead of running a Python script, it will compile a
7 # given tool in the host toolchain and run that (either once or over the list
8 # of inputs, depending on the variant).
13 # [label] Label of the tool to run. This should be an executable, and
14 # this label should not include a toolchain (anything in parens). The
15 # host compile of this tool will be used.
18 # [list of files] Like the outputs of action (if using "compiled_action",
19 # this would be just the list of outputs), or action_foreach (if using
20 # "compiled_action_foreach", this would contain source expansions mapping
21 # input to output files).
24 # [list of strings] Same meaning as action/action_foreach.
27 # Files the binary takes as input. The step will be re-run whenever any
28 # of these change. If inputs is empty, the step will run only when the
29 # binary itself changes.
34 # Same meaning as action/action_foreach.

50 # # build dir (both relative to the "cd" that the script will be run in)
