## Unescaped variables in pkgconfig files
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Spaces in variable values are escaped with `\`, this is required in the case the
|
||
|
|
value is a path that and is used in `cflags` or `libs` arguments. This was an
|
||
|
|
undocumented behaviour that caused issues in the case the variable is a space
|
||
|
|
separated list of items.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For backward compatibility reasons this behaviour could not be changed, new
|
||
|
|
keyword arguments have thus been added: `unescaped_variables` and
|
||
|
|
`unescaped_uninstalled_variables`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```meson
|
||
|
|
pkg = import('pkgconfig')
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
pkg.generate(lib,
|
||
|
|
variables: {
|
||
|
|
'mypath': '/path/with spaces/are/escaped',
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
unescaped_variables: {
|
||
|
|
'mylist': 'Hello World Is Not Escaped',
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
)
|
||
|
|
```
