Otherwise, when you have a static helper library written in Vala
that you want to `link_whole` into a shared library you have to
manually add the .vapi file as a source.
In addition to filtering libs out while generating the command-line, we
must also filter them out in find_library() otherwise these libs will be
detected as "found" on Windows with MSVC.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1509
This commit amends 04a2e6de making
linker.get_std_shared_lib_link_args() always return -shared for
SharedLibrary(es) instead of -bundle. SharedModule(s) get linked with
linker.get_std_shared_module_link_args() which already correctly returns
-bundle.
Before this change -bundle and -install_name ended up being emitted
for Objective-C shared libraries, which caused a linking error.
When dealing with the SharedLibrary or StaticLibrary include
directories, we where not taking into acount that path are relative to
the source tree. With proper helper, this works now. This fixues issue
where the gir may be generated bug from headers found in the prefix.
Add a boolean 'implib' kwarg to executable(). If true, it is permitted to
use the returned build target object in link_with:
On platforms where this makes sense (e.g. Windows), an implib is generated
for the executable and used when linking. Otherwise, it has no effect.
(Rather than checking if it is a StaticLibrary or SharedLibary, BuildTarget
subclasses gain the is_linkable_target method to test if they can appear in
link_with:)
Also install any executable implib in a similar way to a shared library
implib, i.e. placing the implib in the appropriate place
Add tests of:
- a shared_module containing a reference to a symbol which is known (at link
time) to be provided by the executable
- trying to link with non-implib executables (should fail)
- installing the implib
(This last one needs a little enhancement of the installed file checking as
this is the first install test we have which needs to work with either
MSVC-style or GCC-style implib filenames)
Makes it less awkward for tools to parse the data.
Was modified to return a list, with two elements for each dependency,
instead of a dictionary in ac1c929f66 .
Closes#2018.
