This will be printed in bold at the end of interactive meson
sub-commands that won't be parsed by a program. Specifically: setup,
compile, test, and install.

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
This isn't safe given the way python implements default arguments.
Basically python store a reference to the instance it was passed, and
then if that argument is not provided it uses the default. That means
that two calls to the same function get the same instance, if one of
them mutates that instance every subsequent call that gets the default
will receive the mutated instance. The idiom to this in python is to use
None and replace the None,
def in(value: str, container: Optional[List[str]]) -> boolean:
return src in (container or [])
if there is no chance of mutation it's less code to use or and take
advantage of None being falsy. If you may want to mutate the value
passed in you need a ternary (this example is stupid):
def add(value: str, container: Optional[List[str]]) -> None:
container = container if container is not None else []
container.append(value)
I've used or everywhere I'm sure that the value will not be mutated by
the function and erred toward caution by using ternaries for the rest.
Otherwise Python gets all confused and it makes testing difficult.
Also minimally emulate the behaviour of the normal object to make the rest
of the code happy.
This adds a hidden option to dump the current otherwise hidden peristant
state in coredata.dat.
This interface is unstable as meson has no compatibility promises about
coredata.dat.
This has the adventage that "meson --help" shows a list of all commands,
making them discoverable. This also reduce the manual parsing of
arguments to the strict minimum needed for backward compatibility.
This is a regression in Meson 0.48.0, commit 674ae46, Meson used to
exit(0) when running setup command in a builddir already configured.
Changing to exit(1) breaks some build tools that does "meson builddir
&& ninja -C builddir".
Closes#4247.
Allows to manually reconfigure a project the same way backends would do
(e.g. ninja reconfigure). This has the advantage that new options can be
set using "meson --reconfigure -Dfoo=bar" and solve situations where a
project cannot be reconfigured because new options has been added with
the wrong default value.
Fixes#3543.
This makes any warning message printed by meson raise an exception,
intended to be used by CI and developpers to easily catch deprecation
warnings and other potential issues.
If only 1 dir is provided, the 2nd defaults to '.' and if none is
provided they default to '.' and '..'. It should be builddir first,
followed by sourcedir, but validate_core_dirs() will still swap them if
builddir contains a meson.build file.
All options are now the projectoptions list, regardless of how they got
defined in the command line.
This also delays setting builtin option values until the main project()
default options are parsed to simplify the code. This is possible
because we already delayed setting the backend after parsing main
project() in a previous commit.
The project() function could have a different value for the backend
option in its default_options kwargs.
Also set backend options, passing them in command line had no effect
previously.
This mistake seems to be a very common hiccup for people trying to use
Meson with MSYS2 on Windows from git or with pip.
msys/python uses POSIX paths with '/' as the root instead of a drive
like `C:/`, and also does not identify the platform as Windows.
This means that configure checks will be wrong, and many build tools
will be unable to parse the paths that are returned by functions in
Python such as shutil.which.

Instead of using fragile guessing to figure out how to invoke meson,
set the value when meson is run. Also rework how we pass of
meson_script_launcher to regenchecker.py -- it wasn't even being used
With this change, we only need to guess the meson path when running
the tests, and in that case:
1. If MESON_EXE is set in the env, we know how to run meson
for project tests.
2. MESON_EXE is not set, which means we run the configure in-process
for project tests and need to guess what meson to run, so either
- meson.py is found next to run_tests.py, or
- meson, meson.py, or meson.exe is in PATH
Otherwise, you can invoke meson in the following ways:
1. meson is installed, and mesonbuild is available in PYTHONPATH:
- meson, meson.py, meson.exe from PATH
- python3 -m mesonbuild.mesonmain
- python3 /path/to/meson.py
- meson is a shell wrapper to meson.real
2. meson is not installed, and is run from git:
- Absolute path to meson.py
- Relative path to meson.py
- Symlink to meson.py
All these are tested in test_meson_commands.py, except meson.exe since
that involves building the meson msi and installing it.
There are cases when it is useful to wrap the main meson executable with
a script that sets up environment variables, passes --cross-file, etc.
For example, in a Yocto SDK, we need to point to the right meson.cross
so that everything "just works", and we need to alter CC, CXX, etc. In
such cases, it can happen that the "meson" found in the path is actually
a wrapper script that invokes the real meson, which may be in another
location (e.g. "meson.real" or similar).
Currently, in such a situation, meson gets confused because it tries to
invoke itself using the "meson" executable (which points to the wrapper
script) instead of the actual meson (which may be called "meson.real" or
similar). In fact, the wrapper script is not necessarily even Python, so
the whole thing fails.
Fix this by using Python imports to directly find mesonmain.py instead
of trying to detect it heuristically. In addition to fixing the wrapper
issue, this should make the detection logic much more robust.
