When making changes to package:dtd
and package:dtd_impl
at the same time, you'll need to build the Dart SDK to ensure that changes to package:dtd_impl
are picked up in the DTD snapshot.
Consider adding these aliases to your .zshrc
file for convenience. For non-macOS platforms, replace “xcodebuild” with “out”.
# Builds the entire Dart SDK. Run from the sdk/ directory. alias build-dart='./tools/build.py -mrelease create_sdk' # The create_platform_sdk target will work exactly the same as the # `create_sdk` target but without building the web tooling. alias build-dart-fast='./tools/build.py -mrelease create_platform_sdk' # The dart exe that was built by running 'build-dart' or 'build-dart-fast' # will be located here. Create an alias for convenience of using the dart exe. alias sdkdart='/absolute_path_to/sdk/xcodebuild/ReleaseX64/dart-sdk/bin/dart' # The runtime target will only build what the VM needs to run, but will output # the compiled dart binary at `xcodebuild/ReleaseX64/dart` instead of # `xcodebuild/ReleaseX64/dart-sdk/bin/dart`. Runtime is a bit faster than # `create_platform_sdk`, but both are faster than `create_sdk`. alias build-dart-runtime='./tools/build.py -mrelease runtime' # The dart exe that was built by running `build-dart-runtime`. alias sdkruntime='/absolute_path_to/sdk/xcodebuild/ReleaseX64/dart'
After building the Dart SDK with your local changes, use the dart
executable that you just built to run commands that you want your local changes applied to (e.g. sdkdart run ...
, sdkdart test ...
).
