We prefer pkg-config files, though only OpenMPI supplies them.
Otherwise, check environment variables and search for wrappers and ask
them for what to do.
Currently if a target uses link_whole, and one of those archives is a
C++, but the files for the target are C linking will fail when the C
linker attempts to link the C++ files. This patches add
link_whole_targets to the list of languages in the target so the correct
linker will be selected.
We prefer to use the --extra-library parameter for passing -l arguments
to g-ir-scanner, however we need to be careful to only replace the first
'-l' occurrence to not translate
'-lfoo-lib'
to
'--extra-library=foo--extra-library=ib'
Introduce a DirMaker class that disassembles the path up to '/' and stores all
directories in a list. That list is in creation order and pre-existing
directories are ignored, i.e. creating the two paths
'/usr/share/foo/bar/baz' and '/usr/share/foo/bar/boo' is stored as
[ '/usr/share/foo',
'/usr/share/foo/bar',
'/usr/share/foo/bar/baz',
'/usr/share/foo/bar/boo' ]
This is on the assumption that /usr/share already existed.
After all files have been installed, the list of created directories is
appended in reverse order to the install log. The uninstall script then
triggers rmdir on all directories.
If a custom install script drops files into the directories, removing those
will fail. This matches the current expectation, see the existing warning
"Remember that files created by custom scripts have not been removed."
Unfortunately, this makes the behavior on uninstall inconsistent. Assuming a
non-existing prefix,
ninja install && ninja uninstall
removes all traces of the install.
However,
ninja install && ninja install && ninja uninstall
removes the files only, not the directories as they already existed.
This could be fixed by just unconditionally removing any (emtpy) directories
that we drop files into, at the risk of removing system directories if empty.
For example, one could imagine /etc/foo.conf.d/ to be removed in that case if
it is empty.

Try to restore the context for SELinux. If we fail on running
'selinuxenabled', quietly ignore the error and continue. If we fail on the
actual restorecon call, we print a message but disable SELinux - chances are
high that if one restorecon fails, others will too and that's likely a system
setup issue.
Fixes#1967
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.
Precompiled headers should generally be compiled with the same flags as
the sources that will include the header. Some deviations are safe,
however, most will cause the compiler to reject the precompiled header
or possibly lead to compiler crashes.
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.
The glib-genmarshal tool was rewritten in GLib 2.53.3, and now supports
more command line arguments, such as:
"--pragma-once": emits a "#pragma once" instead of the old header
guards when generating the header file
"--prototypes": emits the marshallers prototype when generating the
source file
"-D,-U": defines and undefines pre-processor symbols
"--include-header": emits an "#include" directive when generating the
source file for the specified header file
Meson should take advantage of these new options, as they can be used to
replace most of the ad hoc build rules that projects are currently using
to implement the same thing.
Instead of mapping each option to a named argument, I used the same
approach as the compile_resources() and generate_gir() methods; the
genmarshal() method now has an 'extra_args' argument that can be used to
pass extra arguments to the glib-genmarshal tool.
