-// This file is intentionally empty. We add it to the dependencies of skia_lib
-// so that GYP detects that libskia is a C++ library (implicitly depending on
-// the standard library, -lm, etc.) from its file extension.
-//
-// If we didn't do this, GYP would link libskia.so as a C library and we'd get
-// link-time failures for simple binaries that don't themselves depend on the
-// C++ standard library.
-//
-// Even if we try hard not to depend on the standard library, say, never
-// calling new or delete, the compiler can still insert calls on our behalf
-// that make us depend on it anyway: a handler when we call a for a pure
-// virtual, thread-safety guards around statics, probably other similar
-// language constructs.
