To be able to handle link_depends in backends that do not just operate on a
file basis like ninja, information about the targets, not just their output is
required.
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.
This does not convert the build side, or remove any of the checking it
does. We still need that for other callers of custom target. What we'll
do for those is add an internal interface that defaults things, then
we'll be able to have those callers do their own validation, and the
CustomTarget validation machinary can be removed.
Fixes#9096
In the comparison methods of Target. There are several problems with the
old implementation:
1. It's not idiomatic
2. It can match on things that It shouldn't (like a Compiler, which has
a `get_id() -> str` method, but not one that we should compare with
Targets
3. It confuses mypy, which doesn't handle hasattr
It would probably be better if CommandBase had an initializer so it
could set the depend_files and dependencies attributes itself, but this
will make mypy happier.
This should be done in all cases of language_stdlib_only_link_flags, but
I don't have access to all of the compilers to test it.
This is required in cases where object files created by gfortran are
linked using another compiler with a differen default search path, such
as gfortran and clang together.
This patch adds a new meson built-in option for cython, allowing it to
target C++ instead of C as the intermediate language. This can, of
course, be done on a per-target basis using the `override_options`
keyword argument, or for the entire project in the project function.
There are some things in this patch that are less than ideal. One of
them is that we have to add compilers in the build layer, but there
isn't a better place to do it because of per target override_options.
There's also some design differences between Meson and setuptools, in
that Meson only allows options on a per-target rather than a per-file
granularity.
Fixes#9015
I ran into one of these from LGTM, and it would be nice if pylint could
warn me as part of my local development process instead of waiting for
the CI to tell me.
This really is more of a struct than a dict, as the types are disjoint
and they are internally handled, (ie, not from user input). This cleans
some things up, in addition I spotted a bug in the ModuleState where the
dict with the version and license is passed to a field that expects just
the version string.
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.
Again, this is not complete and is just enough for backend.py. Again,
typing these is complicated massively by the layering violations in the
Target classes and the interpreter.
This is not complete, it's just enough for backend/backend.py. A more
completely typing would be more difficult, especially whithout
untangling the layering violation between the build targets and the
interpreter.
The problem is what happens in this case:
```meson
add_project_arguments('-DHOST', language : 'c', native : false)
add_project_arguments('-DBUILD', langauge : 'c', native : true)
```
The original meson behavior was that in an host == build configuration
only the `native : false` would be applied. This doesn't really make
sense as in that case the build machine is the host machine, so it is
both the native and non-native machine at once. We changed this so that
the both would be applied in a host == build configuration, but this is
a behavioral change, and needs to be reverted.
Fixes: #9037
This commit introduces a new type of `HoldableObject`: The
`SecondLevelHolder`. The primary purpose of this class is
to handle cases where two (or more) `HoldableObject`s are
stored at the same time (with one default object). The
best (and currently only) example here is the `BothLibraries`
class.
There's no reason to allow None into the backend, it already has code to
check that all of the values of the FileMode object are None, so let's
use that, which is much simpler all the way down.
