## pkgconfig.generate will now include variables for builtin directories when referenced
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When using the `variables:` family of kwargs to `pkgconfig.generate` to refer
|
||
|
|
to installed paths, traditionally only `prefix`, `includedir`, and `libdir`
|
||
|
|
were available by default, and generating a correct (relocatable) pkg-config
|
||
|
|
file required manually constructing variables for e.g. `datadir`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Meson now checks each variable to see if it begins with a reference to a
|
||
|
|
standard directory, and if so, adds it to the list of directories for which a
|
||
|
|
builtin variable is created.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, before it was necessary to do this:
|
||
|
|
```meson
|
||
|
|
pkgconfig.generate(
|
||
|
|
name: 'bash-completion',
|
||
|
|
description: 'programmable completion for the bash shell',
|
||
|
|
dataonly: true,
|
||
|
|
variables: {
|
||
|
|
'prefix': get_option('prefix'),
|
||
|
|
'datadir': join_paths('${prefix}', get_option('datadir')),
|
||
|
|
'sysconfdir': join_paths('${prefix}', get_option('sysconfdir')),
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
'compatdir': '${sysconfdir}/bash_completion.d',
|
||
|
|
'completionsdir': '${datadir}/bash-completion/completions',
|
||
|
|
'helpersdir': '${datadir}/bash-completion/helpers',
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
install_dir: join_paths(get_option('datadir'), 'pkgconfig'),
|
||
|
|
)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now the first three variables are not needed.
