Summary0015253: Ninja generator causes build failure for ASM files via NASM
DescriptionOn Windows (haven't tested on other platforms), the Ninja generator for ASM files compiled with NASM adds the "/showIncludes" flag to the NASM command line in "rules.ninja":

    #############################################
    # Rule for compiling ASM_NASM files.

    rule ASM_NASM_COMPILER
      deps = msvc
      command = C:\dev\bin\nasm.exe $FLAGS /showIncludes -f win64 -o $out $in
      description = Building ASM_NASM object $out

This causes a build failure with the error message:

"nasm: error: more than one input file specified"

Using YASM instead of NASM turns this into a warning instead of an error, but inconvenient nonetheless.

Removing "/showIncludes" from the above line in "rules.ninja" fixes the error.
Steps To Reproduce# Have nasm.exe in path #
git clone https://boringssl.googlesource.com/boringssl [^]
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -GNinja ..
ninja

The patch I just attached fixes the issue for me so that BoringSSL builds successfully without warnings from yasm.

This should fix it:

 Ninja: Use "deps = msvc" only for C and CXX
