## Deprecation warning in pkg-config generator
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All libraries passed to the `libraries` keyword argument of the `generate()`
|
||
|
|
method used to be associated with that generated pkg-config file. That means
|
||
|
|
that any subsequent call to `generate()` where those libraries appear would add
|
||
|
|
the filebase of the `generate()` that first contained them into `Requires:` or
|
||
|
|
`Requires.private:` field instead of adding an `-l` to `Libs:` or `Libs.private:`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This behaviour is now deprecated. The library that should be associated with
|
||
|
|
the generated pkg-config file should be passed as first positional argument
|
||
|
|
instead of in the `libraries` keyword argument. The previous behaviour is
|
||
|
|
maintained but prints a deprecation warning and support for this will be removed
|
||
|
|
in a future Meson release. If you can not create the needed pkg-config file
|
||
|
|
without this warning, please file an issue with as much details as possible
|
||
|
|
about the situation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example this sample will write `Requires: liba` into `libb.pc` but print a
|
||
|
|
deprecation warning:
|
||
|
|
```meson
|
||
|
|
liba = library(...)
|
||
|
|
pkg.generate(libraries : liba)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
libb = library(...)
|
||
|
|
pkg.generate(libraries : [liba, libb])
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It can be fixed by passing `liba` as first positional argument::
|
||
|
|
```meson
|
||
|
|
liba = library(...)
|
||
|
|
pkg.generate(liba)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
libb = library(...)
|
||
|
|
pkg.generate(libb, libraries : [liba])
|
||
|
|
```
