# New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add features here as code is merged to master.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Dependency Handler for LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Native support for linking against LLVM using the `dependency` function.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## vcs_tag keyword fallback is is now optional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `fallback` keyword in `vcs_tag` is now optional. If not given, its value
|
|
|
|
|
defaults to the return value of `meson.project_version()`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Better quoting of special characters in ninja command invocations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ninja backend now quotes special characters that may be interpreted by
|
|
|
|
|
ninja itself, providing better interoperability with custom commands. This
|
|
|
|
|
support may not be perfect; please report any issues found with special
|
|
|
|
|
characters to the issue tracker.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Pkgconfig support for custom variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Pkgconfig module object can add arbitrary variables to the generated .pc
|
|
|
|
|
file with the new `variables` keyword:
|
|
|
|
|
```meson
|
|
|
|
|
pkg.generate(libraries : libs,
|
|
|
|
|
subdirs : h,
|
|
|
|
|
version : '1.0',
|
|
|
|
|
name : 'libsimple',
|
|
|
|
|
filebase : 'simple',
|
|
|
|
|
description : 'A simple demo library.',
|
|
|
|
|
variables : ['datadir=${prefix}/data'])
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
