# Style recommendations |
||||
|
||||
This page lists some recommendations on organizing and formatting your |
||||
Meson build files. |
||||
|
||||
## Tabs or spaces? |
||||
|
||||
Always spaces. |
||||
|
||||
## Naming options |
||||
|
||||
There are two ways of naming project options. As an example for |
||||
booleans the first one is `foo` and the second one is |
||||
`enable-foo`. The former style is recommended, because in Meson |
||||
options have strong type, rather than being just strings. |
||||
|
||||
You should try to name options the same as is common in other |
||||
projects. This is especially important for yielding options, because |
||||
they require that both the parent and subproject options have the same |
||||
name. |
||||
|
||||
# Global arguments |
||||
|
||||
Prefer `add_project_arguments` to `add_global_arguments` because using |
||||
the latter prevents using the project as a subproject. |
||||
|
||||
# Cross compilation arguments |
||||
|
||||
Try to keep cross compilation arguments away from your build files as |
||||
much as possible. Keep them in the cross file instead. This adds |
||||
portability, since all changes needed to compile to a different |
||||
platform are isolated in one place. |
