This patch allows all our development scripts, as well as ndk-gdb
to work well when parameters containing spaces are used.

The $@ shell variable is very special because it will expand
differently if inside a quoted string. What this means is that,
while $@ normally corresponds to the list of all parameters to
a function or script, we have:

  $@   -> expands to a single string
  "$@" -> expands to a series of strings

This is important when using them as parameters to other commands
for example consider:

  # Simple function to dump all parameters, one per line.
  dump () {
     for ITEM; do
        echo "$ITEM"
     done
  }

  dump1 () {   # this will always print a single line
      dump $@
  }

  dump2 () {   # this will print one line per item
      dump "$@"
  }

  dump1 aaa bbb ccc      # prints "aaa bbb ccc" on a single line
  dump2 aaa bbb ccc      # prints three lines: "aaa", "bbb" and "ccc"

Generally speaking, one should always use "$@" except in very rare cases
(e.g. when called from an eval command).

This patch ensures that the 'awk' executable generated on Linux
is 32-bit by default. Before that, the executable had the same
endianess than the host machine it was built on.

Due to a small bug, ndk-build would fail to properly select
the thumb or ARM target instruction set when building a file
(either with or without LOCAL_ARM_MODE).

The problem occured in the following circumstances:

  - your project has two modules, which use different
    thumb/arm modes

  - each of these projects try to build the same source
    file, but in different modes.

Due to a bug, the mode selection of the first module was
applied when compiling the second one.

+ Added  unit test to check that everything works correctly
  for all ABIs and compilation modes (including NEON)

This patch fixes ndk-gdb so it can properly debug an application
that has private services. These will appear in the 'ps' output
as <package-name>:<service-name>, and the way the extract-pid.awk
script worked, were matched against <package-name> incorrectly.

+ Make extrac-pid.awk usable when custom ROM use a Busybox 'ps'
  instead of the standard Android toolbox version

+ Add unit test for extract-pid.awk

This change uses different configuration flags for the static and
shared builds of GNU libstdc++, this allows up to disable visible
symbols for the static library, but keep them for the shared one.

+ Fix gnustl_shared module exports. We need to export the
  static libsupc++ library as well. Curiously the library
  isn't part of the shared library (but is part of the
  static one).

  It's probably something we would want to fix with a local
  GNU libstdc++ in the future.

+ New unit test to check that exceptions cross binaries
  properly (i.e. an exception thrown in a shared library
  is properly caught in the executable that links against
  it).

Update the test so that it actually crashes on Cupcake and Eclair.
This unit test is to track the bug described at

   http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=20176

Note that there is no solution yet. It looks like this reveals
a bug in the system's dynamic linker that was only fixed in
Android 2.2 (probably related to weak symbols).

This patch updates all files to refer to the new location of the
AOSP source server, which is now android.googlesource.com.

It updates the download-toolchain-sources.sh script to download
from this server, using the https:// git protocol, instead of
git://

+ Remove the --git-http option since it isn't supported by
  the new servers, nor really desirable since the https://
  protocol should work across firewalls.

  In case you need an alternative, you can still use the
  --git-base option, so nothing of value was lost here.

This fixes a couple of issues in the native win32 build
support. Mainly reduce verbosity of host cp/rm commands
and deals with cmd.exe program's limitations.

We really need our own implementations of "rm" and "mkdir"
in the toolbox to avoid this kind of hack, but for now this
is good enough.

This patch adds a --wine option to run-tests.sh to build all
the tests on Linux with the Wine emulator, using the native
Windows ndk-build.cmd script.

This is an easy way to check that the native windows support
in our NDK build system keeps running.

Change-Id: I023957aa3e4744a094964cbc9b91747aa7ec1c74

This patch is adds support to "native" (i.e. Cygwin-less) Windows
NDK build through the new 'ndk-build.cmd' Windows shell script.

Just call it from the cmd.exe command-line, when in your project
path. The script takes the same arguments than 'ndk-build'.

+ Adds the source of a new tiny Windows-specific command-line
  "echo" program.  The reason for this is that the 'echo' that
  comes with cmd.exe is too weird and will not work properly
  when invoked from make (e.g. it can't deal with double-quoted
  strings properly: it will print the double-quotes in the
  output).

+ build/tools/build-host-toolbox.sh: new script to rebuild the
  'echo' program on Windows.  The idea is that the 'toolbox' may
  contain other command-line programs like "cp" or "mkdir" in
  the future, to avoid relying on the not-so-robust cmd.exe
  versions of these commands (del, md, xcopy), if necessary.

+ Make build-host-prebuilts.sh call build-host-toolbox.sh
  when generating Windows binaries, and package-release.sh
  unpack the corresponding archive when generating the
  Windows packages.

+ build-funcs.sh can now be used to build host binaries too.

+ docs/CHANGES.html: document new native win32 build support.

Change-Id: I4d30f6c6532ae84deb95e7e5f595af76b97d9257

This patch speeds up the packaging operation performed by
package-release.sh by ensuring that all prebuilts are unpacked
into the reference directory, instead of doing it in the final
host-specific one in a loop.

Change-Id: I6871e42b708841d5393917fa98c7f740114e631f

This rewrites the script completely to invoke the new
build-host-prebuilts.sh and build-target-prebuilts.sh
scripts instead.

We no longer make the script download or unpack the toolchain
source directory, instead you will have to provide it manually,
as in the following example:

  $NDK/build/tools/download-toolchain-sources.sh /tmp/ndk-$USER/src
  $NDK/build/tools/rebuild-all-prebuilt.sh /tmp/ndk-$USER/src

Change-Id: I9f03d13105b7b67a0570a119014a3739f5581d6c

This patch adds a new script that can be used to rebuild
all target prebuilts at once. This assumes that you have run
build-host-toolchain.sh previously (and thus have all cross
toolchains installed in your NDK directory).

+ Add check_toolchain_src_dir in prebuilt-common.sh and modify
  other scripts to use it.

+ Add missing --sysroot compiled flags in builder-funcs.sh

Change-Id: I75ee8d6dffb9fba3155b71a291b1f9240e02f76f

If the previous invokation of gen-platforms.sh didn't use
the --fast-copy option, then build-gdbserver.sh tried to copy
symlinks into its build root (/tmp/ndk-$USER/build/gdbserver/sysroot)
and most headers there were dangling symlink.

As a consequence, the build failed because the sysroot files were
invalid. This patch ensures we do not copy the symlinks but the
files that they actually reference instead, fixing the issue.

This patch adds the sources for the host awk tool, as well
as a script that can be used to rebuild the program from scratch.

This patch adds the sources of GNU Make 3.81 to sources/host-tools/
It also provides a script to rebuild the binary from scratch, and
place the resulting program under prebuild/<system>/bin/

from building properly under various rare conditions.

Turns out that we can't reproduce the problem. Still a good idea to
have a regression test here. Note that we built three versions of the
test program, each one linked to a different C++ runtime.
