Ninja Android build supported?

[Justin]

Docs only mention Linux and Mac, and more recently Windows support was announced here. What about Android? Is anyone looking at it?

As far as I understand, several people working on chrome/android use
ninja, so it should mostly work. I guess they haven't updated the wiki
page yet.

Yep, I confirm it works very well under Linux (which is the only development platform we really support for Chromium on Android).

E.g.:

. build/android/envsetup.sh

export GYP_GENERATORS=ninja

android_gyp

ninja -C out/Debug -j32

We should probably consider turning this as the default for Android.
