Obtains the value of the [project build option](Build-options.md)
|
||
|
|
specified in the positional argument.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that the value returned for built-in options that end in `dir`
|
||
|
|
such as `bindir` and `libdir` is always a path relative to (and
|
||
|
|
inside) the `prefix`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The only exceptions are: `sysconfdir`, `localstatedir`, and
|
||
|
|
`sharedstatedir` which will return the value passed during
|
||
|
|
configuration as-is, which may be absolute, or relative to `prefix`.
|
||
|
|
[`install_dir` arguments](Installing.md) handles that as expected, but
|
||
|
|
if you need the absolute path to one of these e.g. to use in a define
|
||
|
|
etc., you should use `get_option('prefix') /
|
||
|
|
get_option('localstatedir')`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For options of type `feature` a
|
||
|
|
[[@feature]] option object
|
||
|
|
is returned instead of a string.
|
||
|
|
See [`feature` options](Build-options.md#features)
|
||
|
|
documentation for more details.
