This can raise any OSError, but we only caught two of them that indicate
a particular failure case. Also catch the generic error form with a more
generic message.
This produces better error messages in cases where e.g. exclusive lock
is not supported.
Those classes are used by wrapper scripts and we should not have to
import the rest of mesonlib, build.py, and all their dependencies for
that.
This renames mesonlib/ directory to utils/ and add a mesonlib.py module
that imports everything from utils/ to not have to change `import
mesonlib` everywhere. It allows to import utils.core without importing
the rest of mesonlib.
Currently mesonlib does some import tricks to figure out whether it
needs to use windows or posix specific functions. This is a little
hacky, but works fine. However, the way the typing stubs are implemented
for the msvcrt and fnctl modules will cause mypy to fail on the other
platform, since the functions are not implemented.
To aleviate this (and for slightly cleaner design), I've split mesonlib
into a pacakge with three modules. A universal module contains all of
the platform agnositc code, a win32 module contains window specific
code, a posix module contains the posix specific code, and a platform
module contains no-op implementations. Then the package's __init__ file
imports all of the universal functions and all of the functions from the
approriate platform module, or the no-op versions as fallbacks. This
makes mypy happy, and avoids `if`ing all over the code to switch between
the platform specific code.
