Dependencies is already a large and complicated package without adding
programs to the list. This also allows us to untangle a bit of spaghetti
that we have.
All changes were created by running
"pyupgrade --py3-only --keep-percent-format"
and committing the results. I have not touched string formatting for
now.
- use set literals
- simplify .format() parameter naming
- remove __future__
- remove default "r" mode for open()
- use OSError rather than compatibility aliases
- remove stray parentheses in function(generator) scopes
Rather than having to manually build the locale aware man paths with
`install_data('foo.fr.1', install_dir: join_paths(get_option('mandir'), 'fr', 'man1'), rename: 'foo.1')`
Support doing
`install_man('foo.fr.1', locale: 'fr')`
By default all subprojects are installed. If --skip-subprojects is given
with no value only the main project is installed. If --skip-subprojects
is given with a value, it should be a coma separated list of subprojects
to skip and all others will be installed.
Fixes: #2550.
run_target() does some variable substitutions since 0.57.0. This is a
new behavior, and undocumented, caused by sharing more code with
custom_target(). More consistency is better, so document it now.
custom_target() was doing variable substitution in the past, because it
shared some code with generator(), but that was undocumented. Some
refactoring in 0.57.0 caused it to not replace @CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR@,
@SOURCE_DIR@, and @BUILD_DIR@ anymore. This patch adds back
@CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR@ and document it. It does not add back @SOURCE_DIR@
because it is duplicate with @SOURCE_ROOT@ that has a better name. Also
do not add back @BUILD_DIR@ which is duplicate of @PRIVATE_DIR@, and
not @BUILD_ROOT@ surprisingly, adding to the confusion.
