This replaces all of the Apache blurbs at the start of each file with an
`# SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0` string. It also fixes existing
uses to be consistent in capitalization, and to be placed above any
copyright notices.
This removes nearly 3000 lines of boilerplate from the project (only
python files), which no developer cares to look at.
SPDX is in common use, particularly in the Linux kernel, and is the
recommended format for Meson's own `project(license: )` field
no_warn_args is unused. Its only purpose was to implement automatic
hiding of UB in transpiled code, and it was not used at all in languages
other than C/C++ -- specifically when the C/C++ source files were
created by transpiling from vala or cython.
[why]
On Apple clang 15.0.0 linker (i.e. ld64 1015.7) giving the same rpath
multiple times raises a warning:
ld: warning: duplicate -rpath '/local/lib' ignored
This can frequently happen when linking several dependencies that all
have that rpath in e.g. pkgconfig.
[how]
Deduplicate all rpath arguments.
[note]
I'm not sure how the code handles --start/end-group, but for rpath that
should not make any difference as that is not bound to a group.

Partially reverts commit 1624354f33 which
moved a bunch of stuff from strings to enums. The issue here is that
Compiler.mode is not just, or primarily, something we compare, but is
instead written in as e.g. `rule c_{compiler.mode}` to build.ninja, so
this identifier needs to be a string.
Ultimately, the issue is that the commit tried to rewrite a bunch of
things called "mode" that had a couple of TODOs saying to use enums...
but it rewrote everything called "mode" regardless of whether it was a
function kwarg or a compiler property, even though the TODO only applied
to one of them.
It should *be* a version comparison. We are guaranteed to get a
two-element version number, which also parses as a float but a float
doesn't correctly handle version sorting when the second component
differs in number of digits.
The standard way to handle this is by comparing tuples such that each
component is an integer. Do so here.

A standard C library may not exist for cross-compile
environments, thus the existence of <stdio.h> cannot be
guaranteed.
Use <stddef.h> instead, this header contains compiler-specific
defines thus it usually comes from the compiler.
Adds a new method to the compiler object, has_define.
This makes it possible to check if a preprocessor macro/define
is set or not.
This is especially helpful if the define in question is empty,
for example:
#define MESON_EMPTY_DEFINE
This would yield the same results as a missing define with
the existing get_define method, as it would return an empty
string for both cases. Therefore this additional method is
needed.
This detects cases where module A imports a function from B, and C
imports that same function from A instead of B. It's not part of the API
contract of A, and causes innocent refactoring to break things.
Fixes get_define() for MSVC. cl with /std:c11 and newer add a trailing
space character when substituting, even if macro is empty. This breaks
parsing preprocessed output to extract value. Since they cannot contain
spaces it is safe to simply strip parsed value.
Fixes: #10179
This saves on a 1500-line import at startup and may be skipped entirely
if no compiled languages are used. In exchange, we move the
implementation to a new file that is imported instead.
Followup to commit ab20eb5bbc.
C like compilers only off `-DNDEBUG` to disable asserts. This is not a
universal paradigm however. Rust, for example has an argument that takes
a boolean. To better represent this, we allow passing a `disable`
boolean. `disable` was chosen rather than `enable` because it allowed
all existing logic to be left in place
Profiling showed that we were spending 25s inside os.path.realpath()
on Windows while generating compile lines for build.ninja, inside
NinjaBackend.generate()
The real path for these will not (should not) change during a single
meson invocation, so cache all these.
Brings build.ninja generation from 73s to 47s on my machine.
Which adds the `use-set-for-membership` check. It's generally faster in
python to use a set with the `in` keyword, because it's a hash check
instead of a linear walk, this is especially true with strings, where
it's actually O(n^2), one loop over the container, and an inner loop of
the strings (as string comparison works by checking that `a[n] == b[n]`,
in a loop).
Also, I'm tired of complaining about this in reviews, let the tools do
it for me :)
ccache was used in all command lines but disabled using CCACHE_DISABLE
in Compiler.compile() method. Wrapping invokations still has a cost,
especially on Windows.
With sccache things are even worse because CCACHE_DISABLE was not
respected at all, making configure *extremely* slow on Windows when
sccache is installed.
We need to support cases where the library might be called "foo.so" and
therefore we check for exact matches too. But this also allows
`cc.find_library('libfoo')` to find libfoo.so, which is strange and
won't work in many cases. Emit a warning when this happens.
Fixes#10838
We *mostly* just need to do the same thing. Plug in one utility method
to make sanity_check_impl find the right compile args, and plug in
DEVNULL to the test run. It's that simple.
This solves a few inconsistencies. The main one is that fortran never
logged the sanity checks to the Meson debug log, making it hard to
debug.
There's also some interesting quirks we built up in the dedicated
fortran handling. For example:
- in commit 5b109c9ad2 we added cwd to
building the fortran executable, with a wordy comment about how the
compiler has defects. But the clike base has always done that on
general principle anyway, so we would never have had that bug in the
first place.
- in commit d6be7822a0 we added special
deletion of an old "bad existing exe file" just for fortran. Looking
at the PR discussion for this odd requirement, it turns out that the
real problem is mixing WSL and native Windows without deleting the
build directory. This is apparently fortran specific simply because
"contemporary Windows 10 Fortran users" switch between the two?
The actual problem is that this never used .exe as the output name, so
Windows thinks you want to run something other than the thing you
asked to run, because it's not even a Window executable. But... the
common clike handling could have fixed that without needing special
cases.
[why]
Support for the relatively new mold linker is missing. If someone wants
to use mold as linker `LDFLAGS="-B/path/to/mold"` has to be added instead
of the usual `CC_LD=mold meson ...` or `CXX_LD=mold meson ...`.
[how]
Allow `mold' as linker for clang and newer GCC versions (that versions
that have support).
The error message can be a bit off, because it is generic for all GNU
like compilers, but I guess that is ok. (i.e. 'mold' is not listed as
possible linker, even if it would be possible for the given compiler.)
[note]
GCC Version 12.0.1 is not sufficient to say `mold` is supported. The
expected release with support will be 12.1.0.
On the other hand people that use the un-released 12.0.1 will probably
have built it from trunk. Allowing 12.0.1 is helping bleeding edge
developers to use mold in Meson already now.

When something goes wrong with running the compiler in
_symbols_have_underscore_prefix_searchbin, print stderr instead,
as it actually contains helpful output while stdout is usually empty
in this case.
Removed errant "type: ignore".
Fixed issue with "fetch" call. This issue was the following:
Dict::get() and Dict::pop() have the following signature:
T.Callable[[_T, _U], _U | None] OR T.Callable[[_T], _U | None]
Note how the return type is _U here. When the fetch() function was
actually being called, it had the following signature:
T.Callable[[_T, T.List[_U]], T.Union[T.List[_U], _U]]
This is incompatible with the previous definitions. The solution is
simply to move where the default value is introduced if fetch() produces
None.
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.
