Instead of the default ones, this is especially important when cross
compiling or when using compilers that aren't compatible with the
default ones.
squash! dependencies/hdf5: Use the actual system compilers
This catches some very real errors.
The one in scalapack is pretty silly actually, it's failing to figure
out that the exploded list is at least two arguments. However, the code
is actually clearer by not using a list and exploding it, so I've done
that and pylint is happy too.
There was both a straight up bug in the type signature (the return type
is List[Callable[[], Dependency]] not List[Type[Dependency]]), and in
the way the arguments are assembled. Typing is pretty limited in it's
ability to express decorators, so the best mypy can do is check the
return types (I think). I've done what the docs suggest and it's stopped
complaining.
- Exceptions raised during subproject setup were ignored.
- Allow c_stdlib in native file, was already half supported.
- Eliminate usage of subproject variable name by overriding
'<lang>_stdlib' dependency name.
The compilers_detect function is only used in the qt module, which
checks every time before using a specific compiler, if it is found.
e.g.
meson.build:10:6: ERROR: MOC sources specified and couldn't find moc-qt5, please check your qt5 installation
In fact, the current check means we never even hit this error to begin
with, because we previously died on the uninformative error:
meson.build:10:6: ERROR: Program(s) ['moc'] not found or not executable
which doesn't actually tell the user why this matters, and is all around
a waste of time.
Fixes#5582
The `debug` builtin option does not control whether or not the debug
CRT is used. Without this fix, when buildtype=debugoptimized or when
debug=true + b_vscrt=md, we will try to link to the debug libraries
found via cmake while linking with `/release`, which will cause a link
failure.
* Add boost_root support to properties files
This commit implements `boost_root`, `boost_includedir`, and
`boost_librarydir` variable support to native and cross properties
files. The search order is currently environment variables, then
these variables, and finally a platform-dependent search.
* Add preliminary boost_root / boost_includedir tests
Each test contains a fake "version.hpp", as that's how boost detection is
currently being done. We look for this file relative to the root directory,
which probably shouldn't be allowed (it previously was for BOOST_LIBRARYDIR
but not for BOOST_ROOT). It also cannot help with breakage detection in
libraries, however it looks like this wasn't getting tested beforehand.
I've given the two unique version numbers that shouldn't be present in any
stock version of boost (001 and 002).
* Add return type to detect_split_root
* Return empty list when nothing found in BOOST_ROOT, rather than None
* Update boost_root tests
* Create nativefile.ini based on location of run_project_tests.py
* Add fake libraries to ensure boost_librarydir is being used
* Require all search paths for boost to be absolute
* Redo boost search ordering
To better match things like pkg-config, we now look through native/cross files,
then environment variables, then system locations for boost installations.
Path detection does not fall back from one method to the next for properties or
environment variables--if boost_root, boost_librarydir, or boost_includedir is
specified, they must be sufficient to find boost. Likewise for BOOST_ROOT and
friends. pkg-config detection is still optional falling back to system-wide
detection, for Conan.
(Also, fix a typo in test 33's nativefile)
* Correct return type for detect_roots
* Correct boost dependency search order in documentation
* Print debug information for boost library finding, to resolve CI issues
* Handle native/cross file templates in a more consistent way
All tests can now create a `nativefile.ini.in` if they need to use some
parameter that the testing framework knows about but they can't.
* Pass str--rather than PosixPath--to os.path.exists, for Python35
* Look for boost minor versions, rather than boost patch versions in test cases
* Drop fake dylib versions of boost_regex
* Prefer get_env_var to use of os.environ
* Correct error reporting for relative BOOST_ROOT paths
* Bump version this appears in. Also, change "properties file" to "machine file" as that appears to be the more common language.
- vcpkg libraries are not found when given cmake_toolchain_file and vcpkg_target_triplet as cmake_args when looking for the dependency if the first call to cmake has different arguments. The libraries are found if the first call has same arguments or if the CMakeCache.txt is deleted in call_with_fake_build.
Otherwise we can end up finding dependencies from the build machine for
the host machine, which is incorrect. This alters cmake, pkg-config, and
all config-tool based dependencies.
Fixes: #7276
it really doesn't make sense to put this in the ExternalDependency
class. It doesn't rely on any of the state of that class, and it's
generically useful inside meson.
When meson is currently being run with a python that seems to have been
installed from the Windows Store, replace the general WindowsApps
directory in search paths with dirname(sys.executable), and also handle
failures with pathlib.resolve on WindowsApps exe files.
The linker that comes with MSVC does not understand the /openmp flag.
This results in a string of
LINK : warning LNK4044: unrecognized option '/openmp'; ignored
warnings, one for each static_library linked with an executable.
Avoid this by only setting the linker openmp flag when the compiler is
not MSVC.
This is especially useful for Conan, where only the boost.pc
file is provided and manually setting BOOST_ROOT is not a
good solution since it is in a private cache directory.
See #5438
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
Now follows ios and other platform directory layouts. Moves from
separate android_$arch directories to every library containing a _$arch
suffix. e.g. libQt5Core_x86.a in a single directory.
The system tool is always the wrong thing to use and cause hard to debug
issues when trying to link system libraries with cross built binaries.
The ExternalDependency base class already had a method to deal with
this, used by PkgConfigDependency and QtBaseDependency, so it should
make things more consistent.
Doing this by hand is fraught with corner cases, and we're running into
some of those problems already. setuptools pkg_resource is a well tested
solution for not running into corner cases, and we already rely on
setuptools to make our entry point scripts work, so we might as well
make us of the other things it can solve for us.
Fixes#6801
When taking library dependencies from CMake, we first attempt to look
the dependency up in the target list, then fall back to treating it as a
path, which we add if the path exists.
As there is no check for whether or not the path is really a path, this
can cause false positives; for example if a 'uuid' dependency was passed
intending to be a target, but it cannot be found and the current
directory also contains a file or directory named 'uuid', we will just
include the string 'uuid' in library dependencies.
This is particularly prevalent on Windows, where a system library called
'version' exists, and thanks to case insensitivity will match a file
called 'VERSION' if found in the source root when running Meson from the
source directory, or a generated file when running Meson from the build
directory.
Fix this check to only look up filesystem existence on absolute paths,
not unqualified.
This also adds a fallback warning in case an argument cannot be found,
rather than silently falling back.
