With this change, the only two remaining generated scripts are build/exports.js and build/test/requireall.js. Both are only required by Plovr. With the Node based build task, a temporary exports.js file is created. The Node based server can be used to run the tests without build/test/requireall.js.
Since the compiler leaves externs untouched and learns the used
properties from object literals, this replaces the otherwise
required typedefs just fine.
The externs/olx.js script includes @typedef annotations for objects that are used in the library. When compiling the examples together with the library, we need these @typedef annotations. In this same case, we don't need the object property names to be treated as externs (they can be safely renamed).
The single externs/olx.js file describes all of the "options" objects we accept in our constructors. The @typedef annotations are used by the compiler for type checking. The @type annotations include documentation for individual options and serve as externs when compiling a profile of the library. When compiling an application together with the library, the externs/olx.js file is included as one of the sources to provide the @typedef's without generating externs.
If we want to maintain multiple src/*.externs.js files instead of one large externs/olx.js file, we can. But while we are still using Plovr, it makes for easier build configurations to have one file.
This removes the build tasks that generated the build/src/external/src/externs/types.js and build/src/internal/src/types.js files as those are both replaced by the single externs/olx.js file.
This reverts 4d619d71b1 (see #1527), going back to what we had after e13075f6ff (see #881).
To avoid the 404 in the hosted examples, the css is copied to the same relative path when hosted as during development.
