What is actually defined here varies wildly on different python-versions
for different platforms.
On my python2.7 on Windows len(sysconfig.get_config_vars()) returns 17,
whereas in my Ubuntu that number is 517!
Hence it is useful to be able to check which keys are available, as
well as allowing specifying a default option.
* gnome: If pkg-config is not found, assume glib is 2.0
Checking the pkg-config file to confirm tool versions is a hack, and
should eventually be replaced with checking the actual versions of the
tools.
* gnome: Actually assume glib version is 2.54 if not found
It is actually not possible to build most projects with the GNOME
module if your glib is older, particularly genmarshal and
gdbus-codegen generate unusable output without newer arguments that
were added for Meson.
The entire subdirectory was getting duplicated, which was exceeding the
max path limit in Python on Windows and causing build failures.
Example:
subprojects/gst-plugins-bad/gst-libs/gst/uridownloader/subprojects@gst-plugins-bad@gst-libs@gst@uridownloader@@gsturidownloader-1.0@sha/subprojects/gst-plugins-bad/gst-libs/gst/uridownloader/gsturidownloader-1.0-0.dll.symbols
This path is too long and opening it will cause a FileNotFoundError on
Windows.
The fix for Requires generation in #3406 missed a second code path with the same
problem.
Passing a pkgconfig dependency to requires would produce Q, t, 5, C, o,r, e'
instead of 'Qt5Core'.
This was introduced in 8efd940.
To maintain backward compatibility we cannot add recursive objects by
default. Print a warning when there are recursive objects to be pulled
and the argument is not set. After a while we'll do pull recursive
objects by default.
- determine_ext_objs: What matters is if extobj.target is a unity build,
not if the target using those objects is a unity build.
- determine_ext_objs: Return one object file per compiler, taking into
account generated sources.
- object_filename_from_source: No need to special-case unity build, it
does the same thing in both code paths.
- check_unity_compatible: For each compiler we must extract either none
or all its sources, taking into account generated sources.
The `install` parameter that is present in the `permittedKwargs`
annotation is wrong. The correct parameter name, which is also
consistent with the rest of functions in the `gnome` module, is
`install_dir`.
This adds a new method, partial_dependency to all dependencies. These
sub dependencies are copies of the original dependency, but with one or
more of the attributes replaced with an empty list. This allows creating
a sub dependency that has only cflags or drops link_arguments, for
example.
I'm not really happy about this to be honest, I don't like having both
-- and -D options, I think it's stupid to have two ways to do exactly
the same thing, especially since we then have to validate that someone
hasn't passed the argument both ways.
However, other people want this, so here it is.
Fixes#969
Currently meson only accepts `-Dopt=value` for builtin options when
calling `meson configure` and `--opt=value` for builtin options when
calling `meson` initially. This is a confusing behavior, and users only
get a small warning at the top of a potentially long configuration
summary to catch this.
This has confused end users and developers alike, there are at least 5
duplicates of the bug this fixes, and I have personally been asked about
this more times than I can count. The help documentation doesn't make
it clear that -D cannot be used to set options like prefix and bindir.
This adds support for -D options to the initial meson call, but not --
options to the meson configure call. I think it's better to have one way
to do things, and -- options are kinda one off while -D is used
everywhere else, so lets stick with that.
Related #969
We have all the information needed to calculate the builtin arguments in
the coredata module already, don't duplicate that in the mesonmain
module as well.
Currently we manually pass the argparse action, this isn't very DRY,
since the builtin_types already has all the data necessary to find that.
This adds a new function to determine the action based on the default
type.
Since we want to make the options passed to `meson` and `meson
configure` equivalent, we need to allows pass -D<lang>_args and
-D<lang>_link_args to `meson`. This path assumes that if one is set then
the other must be, which isn't true.
GCC does not print a warning or error for unknown options if the options
are to disable warnings. Therefore, when checking for options starting
'-Wno-', also check the opposite enabling option. This fixes the case
where e.g. -Wno-implicit-fallthrough is incorrectly reported as supported
by gcc 5.4. To avoid missed warnings when using combinations of flags, such
as in test case "112 has arg", we limit the checking of for the positive
option to where the negative option is checked alone.
