This bring us in line with Autotools and CMake and it is useful
for platforms like Nix, which install projects
into multiple independent prefixes.
As a consequence, `get_option` might return absolute paths for some
directory options, if a directory outside of prefix is passed.
This is technically a backwards incompatible change but its effect
should be minimal, thanks to widespread use of `join_paths`/`/` operator
and pkg-config generator module. It should only cause an issue when
a path were constructed by concatenating the value of directory path option.
Also remove a comment about commonpath since we do not use that since
<00f5dadd5b>.

For example:
```
meson builddir \
--native-file vs2019-paths.txt \
--native-file vs2019-win-x64.txt \
--cross-file vs2019-paths.txt \
--cross-file vs2019-win-arm64.txt
```
This was causing the error:
> ERROR: Multiple producers for Ninja target "/path/to/vs2019-paths.txt". Please rename your targets.
Fix it by using a set() when generating the list of regen files, and
add a test for it too.
This removes the ability to use ConfigurationData as a dict, but
restricting the inputs to `str | int | bool`. This may be a little too
soon for this, and we may want to wait on that part, it's only bee 8
months since we started warning about this.
pkgconf has a bug on MSYS2 due to which prefixes with spaces are not
handled correctly if the library has a Requires: on another library
and both have prefixes with spaces in them.
See: https://github.com/pkgconf/pkgconf/issues/238
So move the unit test to libanswer.pc instead of libfoo.pc till that
is fixed.
If a pkg-config dependency has multiple libraries in it, which is the
most common case when it has a Requires: directive, or when it has
multiple -l args in Libs: (rare), then we don't add -Wl,-rpath
directives to it when linking.
The existing test wasn't catching it because it was linking to
a pkgconfig file with a single library in it. Update the test to
demonstrate this.
This function was originally added for shared libraries in the source
directory, which explains the name:
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/2397
However, since now it is also used for linking to *all* non-system
shared libraries that we link to with absolute paths:
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/3092
But that PR is incomplete / wrong, because only adding RPATHs for
dependencies that specify a single library, which is simply
inconsistent. Things will work for some dependencies and not work for
others, with no logical reason for it.
We should add RPATHs for *all* libraries. There are no special length
limits for RPATHs that I can find.
For ELF, DT_RPATH or DT_RUNPATH are used, which are just stored in
a string table (DT_STRTAB). The maximum length is only a problem when
editing pre-existing tags.
For Mach-O, each RPATH is stored in a separate LC_RPATH entry so there
are no length issues there either.

If the compiler check is updated as a string in meson.build, we force
rebuild, which is a good thing since the outcome of that check changes
the configuration context and can enable or disable parts of the build.
If the compiler check came from a files() object then we didn't add a
regen rule on those files.
Fixes#1656
Emit a detailed deprecation warning that explains what to do instead.
Also add a unittest.
```
DEPRECATION: target prog links against shared module mymod, which is incorrect.
This will be an error in the future, so please use shared_library() for mymod instead.
If shared_module() was used for mymod because it has references to undefined symbols,
use shared_libary() with `override_options: ['b_lundef=false']` instead.
```

This ensures that there is no warnings when running meson on

assertTrue and assertFalse are recommended against, if you can get a
more specific assertion. And sometimes it is considerably shorter, for
example we have a custom assertPathExists which we can take advantage
of.
It never made sense here to save self.init() which returns a string
containing a log or stdout or something, and which was never actually
used.
Also we then overwrote the variable with a pathname...
In commit d932cd9fb4, we migrated to
meson's own static linker definition, and the old code that hardcoded
two of the possible exelists should have been removed in the process.
Since they will never be used outside of the build directory, they do
not need to literally contain the .o files, and references will be
sufficient.
This covers a major use of object libraries, which is that the static
library would potentially take up a lot of space by including another
copy of every .o file.

All changes were created by running
"pyupgrade --py3-only"
and committing the results. Although this has been performed in the
past, newer versions of pyupgrade can automatically catch more
opportunities, notably list comprehensions can use generators instead,
in the following cases:
- unpacking into function arguments as function(*generator)
- unpacking into assignments of the form x, y = generator
- as the argument to some builtin functions such as min/max/sorted
Also catch a few creeping cases of new code added using older styles.
Clippy is a compiler wrapper for rust that provides an extra layer of
linting. It's quite popular, but unfortunately doesn't provide the
output of the compiler that it's wrapping in it's output, so we don't
detect that clippy is rustc. This small patch adds a new compiler class
(that is the Rustc class with a different id) and the necessary logic to
detect that clippy is in fact rustc)
Fixes: #8767
Remove test_minor_version_does_not_reconfigure_wipe() because when run
during dev cycle that test reconfigure with .99 -> .100 which is
considered a major version change now. It is covered by a more efficient
internal test now anyway.
While at it, remove no-op `with Path(self.builddir):` statement, the
intention was clearly to set workdir.
Fixes: #9260
Alias commands did not work with the vs backend, due to trying to access
target.command[0] with an empty command. Fix this by just not emitting a
CustomBuild node for alias targets - the project references are enough to
trigger the necessary actions.
Fixes: #9247
This requires a bit of extra code because the version might change, but
otherwise it fits in the existing AllPlatformTests.test_summary testcase

I have a local configuration
tag.forcesignannotated=true
commit.gpgsign=true
This causes the tests to fail with e.g.
error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object
Since this is a unittest, it is never wrong to tell git "just ignore
prior configuration, and disable all PGP signing".
It is a commonly needed information to help debugging build issues. We
already were printing options with non-default value at the end of the
configure but outside of the summary.
Keeping the list of user defined options in the interpreter will also in
the future be useful to use new default value on reconfigure.
We have a lot of these. Some of them are harmless, if unidiomatic, such
as `if (condition)`, others are potentially dangerous `assert(...)`, as
`assert(condtion)` works as expected, but `assert(condition, message)`
will result in an assertion that never triggers, as what you're actually
asserting is `bool(tuple[2])`, which will always be true.
It should build the fallback subprject with default_library=static and
override the dependency for both static=True and static kwarg not given.
Fixes: #8050.
We don't actually want to do anything with the open()ed file, just
immediately close it.
The CalledProcessError doesn't have its return returncode checked
here, even though other code with the same type of context manager does.
In the case main->subp->subsubp, if subsubp succeed to configure but
subp subsequentially fails, subsubp is still being built but its summary
was missing.
