Notes on updating libvpx source code.
Please follow these steps to update libvpx source code:
1. Update libvpx source tree. Look for "Current HEAD: <hash>" output to update
README.chromium. Look for "git log from upstream: <git log>" output to add
to the commit message.
./update_libvpx.sh [branch name]
2. Generate updated .gypi and config files.
./generate_gypi.sh
3. Update this README with any Version, Date, Branch, and Commit changes. The
version is in the file source/config/vpx_version.h
4. Commit the changes in root (I.e README & .gypi files), source/libvpx, and
source/config directories. The commit message should look like this:
libvpx: Pull from upstream
Current HEAD: <hash>
git log from upstream:
a6b2070 <git commit message 1>
08dabbc <git commit message 2>
c29fb02 <git commit message 3>
Tools needed to build libvpx:
- generate_gypi.sh
Generate config and .gypi files that contain the source list for each platform.
Configuration for the build is taken from vpx_config.h for each platform.
- lint_config.sh
A tool to verify vpx_config.h and vpx_config.asm are matched. This also
prints the final configuration after checking.
- unpack_lib_posix.sh
Unpack a static library of .a type. This tool takes a list of possible
locations of the library file and extract the content.
- copy_obj.py
A copy utility from a list of candidate locations.
