What's meaning the toolsset 'target' and 'host'

[Chine Gary]

When I build a project,it always come to the toolset 'host' but not 'target',but my shared library only support the 'target' build.

How do I check the build script to make the build only done on 'target' toolset?

Thanks,

Gary

Not sure I understand what is the actual question here.

Are you maybe looking for stuff like this in gyp (similarly host_toolchain on gn) ?

'toolsets': ['host', 'target'],

Assuming gyp here, then your gyp target is typically pulled in through a dependency and it will use the same toolset as the parent by default.

If you have a "host" gyp-target and want to depend on a "target" gyp-target then use the hash syntax:

'dependencies': [
  'mylib#target',
],

There is a limited amount of documentation on this here:

Suggestions for improving it are welcome.
