If successful, we should identify the method which was successful
If successful, we should report the version found (if known)
If failing, we should identify the methods we tried
Some dependency detectors which had no reporting now gain it
There's all kinds of complexities, inconsistencies and special cases hidden
in the existing behaviour, e.g.:
- boost reports modules requested, and BOOST_ROOT (if set)
- gtest/gmock report if they are a prebuilt library or header only
- mpi reports the language
- qt reports modules requested, and the config tool used or tried
- configtool reports the config tool used
- llvm reports if missing modules are optional (one per line)
We add some simple hooks to allow the dependency object to expose the
currently reported information into the consolidated reporting
Note that PkgConfigDependency() takes a silent: keyword which is used
internallly to suppress reporting. This behaviour isn't needed in
find_external_dependency().
Give ConfigToolDependency() a finish_init callback, so that tool-specific
initialization can be called from the constructor, rather than after
construction in the factory class.
v2:
finalize -> finish_init for clarity
find_external_dependency() now makes and iterates over a list of callables
which are constructors with bound arguments for the dependency objects we
are going to attempt to make, so we can consolidate reporting on these
attempts and handling failures in that function.
We now pass the current subproject to every FeatureNew and
FeatureDeprecated call. This requires a bunch of rework to:
1. Ensure that we have access to the subproject in the list of
arguments when used as a decorator (see _get_callee_args).
2. Pass the subproject to .use() when it's called manually.
3. We also can't do feature checks for new features in
meson_options.txt because that's parsed before we know the
meson_version from project()
A number of cases have to be taken care of while doing this, so
refactor it into a helper on ExternalProgram and use it everywhere.
1. Command is a list of len > 1, use it as-is
2. Command is a list of len == 1 (or a string), use as a string
3. If command is an absolute path, use it as-is
4. If command is not an absolute path, search for it
All dependencies were using find_library, has_header, get_define, etc on
self.compiler assuming that it's a compiler that outputs and consumes
C-like libraries. This is not true for D (and in the future, for Rust)
since although they can consume C libraries, they do not use the
C ecosystem.
For such purposes, we now have self.clib_compiler. Nothing uses
self.compiler anymore as a result, and it has been removed.
debugoptimized builds building against Qt would ultimately link against
both the debug and non-debug msvcrt, ntdll, etc libraries which causes
crashes in weird places and is very much not recommended by Microsoft.
This changes the selected Qt library(ies) correctly to not uses the
debug variants for debugoptimized builds.

This reverts commit 0045d95a16.
<jeandet> nirbheek, it seems 0045d95a16 is
really wrong, I've tested on Ubuntu. While writing this line I was
thinking that you can't have Qt without a working qmake in the path. On
Ubuntu you have that qtchooser stuff which is misleading.
Removed Qt4 private headers test since it's hard to get Qt4 private
headers installed on CI.

This commit adds private_headers option in dependency method which tells
QtDependency to add private headers include path to build flags.
Since there is no easy way to do this with pkg-config only qmake method
supports this, so with private_headers set qmake will always be used.

ExtraFrameworkDependency doesn't support any method: other than auto, so
handing down the method: used from QtBaseDependency leads to (sic):
meson.build:13:2: ERROR: Unsupported detection method: qmake, allowed methods are auto and auto
At the moment, QtBaseDependency._framework_detect sets is_found if at least
one module is found. This gives the incorrect result in the case where both
found and not-found modules are given.
Fix it so it only sets is_found if all the modules given are found.
Fix dependency('qt4|5', method: 'qmake') detection when shared library
extension isn't .so
Note that OSX already has a special case to look for .framework
Create GL dependency objects via a factory function, so they can be the
correct type of object (e.g. a PkgConfigDependency when it's found by
pkg-config)
Factor out method: kwarg processing, so it can be used by the factory before
the dependency object is constructed
Since this is only consulted while constructing the Dependency object, it's
result doesn't depend on the instance (and it would make no sense if it did)
Special case ThreadDependency by taking compiler's flags and
PkgConfigDependency by adding them in requires(.private) instead. For
other Dependency objects just take their link_args and compile_args.
Closes#2725
Also try harder to find a compiler that dependencies can use.
This means that in C++-only projects we will use the C++ compiler for
compiler checks, which can be important.
Just detect lrelease as done with other Qt tools.
Uses -version instead of -v to probe version since lrelease don't
support it.

We can now specify the library type we want to search for, and whether
we want to prefer static libraries over shared ones or the other way
around. This functionality is not exposed to build files yet.
Fix an error in the windows vulkan_sdk library finding.
Also don't fail the vulkan test only because no vulkan
driver is installed (should fix the travis error).
Rework the vulkan module:
- adopt the VULKAN_SDK paths for its linux version
- add sanity tests for the VULKAN_SDK path
- add guessing as last fallback, needed on linux systems
on which no vulkan pkgconfig is installed [ubuntu atm]
- restructure exception handling/branching
Not tested on windows yet.
