`configure_file` is both an extremely complicated implementation, and
a strange place for copying. It's a bit of a historical artifact, since
the fs module didn't yet exist. It makes more sense to move this to the
fs module and deprecate this `configure_file` version.
This new version works at build time rather than configure time, which
has the disadvantage it can't be passed to `run_command`, but with the
advantage that changes to the input don't require a full reconfigure.
install_mode can include the setuid bit, which has the special property
(mentioned in the set_mode logic for minstall itself) of needing to come
last, because it "will get wiped by chmod" (or at least chown).
In fact, it's not just chown that wipes setuid, but other changes as
well, such as the file contents. This is not an issue for install_data /
custom_target, but for compiled outputs, we run depfixer to handle
rpaths. This may or may not cause edits to the binary, depending on
whether we have a build rpath to wipe, or an install rpath to add. (We
also may run `strip`, but that external program already has its own mode
restoration logic.)
Fix this by switching the order of operations around, so that setting
the permissions happens last.

This was never meant to work, it's an implementation detail of using
`importlib.import_module` and that our modules used to be named
`unstable_` that this ever worked.
Thanks to `ModuleInfo`, all modules are just named `foo.py` instead of
`unstable_foo.py`, which simplifies the import method a bit. This also
allows for accurate FeatureNew/FeatureDeprecated use, as we know when
the module was added and if/when it was stabilized.
Instead of using FeatureNew/FeatureDeprecated in the module.
The goal here is to be able to handle information about modules in a
single place, instead of having to handle it separately. Each module
simply defines some metadata, and then the interpreter handles the rest.
In order to reliably link to static libraries or individual object
files, we need to take their languages into account as well. For static
libraries this is easy: we just add the static library's list of
compilers to the build target. For extracted objects, we need to only
add the ones for the objects we use.
But we did this really inefficiently -- in fact, downright terribly. We
iterated over all source files from the extracted objects, then tried to
look up a new compiler for them. Even though the extracted objects
already had a list of compilers! This broke once compilers were made
per-subproject, because while the extracted objects have a reference to
all the compilers it needs (just like static archives do, actually) we
might not actually be able to look up that compiler from scratch inside
the current subproject.
Fix this by asking the extracted objects to categorize all its own
sources and return the compilers we want.
Fixes#10579
Currently, if we run "meson configure -Doption=value", meson will
do a reconfigure when running "ninja build" afterwards, even if
the new value is the same one that was already configured previously.
To avoid this unnecessary reconfigure, let's use replace_if_different()
instead of unconditionally replacing the conf file in coredata's save()
function.
This forces the use of the Apple archiver, since that archiver doesn't
add extern'd variables to the symbol table automatically, and instead
requires that ranlib be used. A native file is used to ensure that
Apple's ar is used even in the presence of llvm or gcc in the path with
their superior archivers.

These checked that e.g. the cpp and fc ids are identical, which isn't
strictly what we want. Particularly, msvc doesn't even have a fortran
compiler, and what we really care about is whether we mix both gcc and
something else.
This error message was quite confusing when triggered by
use of an absolute path to the include dir of an external dependency
(numpy in my case). Changing that to a relative dir also isn't
a solution, because Meson will *not* do the "busywork to make paths
work" that the error message says it will.
This is undefined behaviour, and seems to have caused test failures
when backporting Meson to an older toolchain in the Steam Runtime.

We have to handle this, because Windows needs to link to the implib of
the executable (???) in order to create a shared module. This is
explicitly checked for and handled in the backend, and creating a build
target with `link_with: some_exe` still works, even. But updating
declare_dependency to typed_kwargs neglected to take that into account,
so creating a convenience interface for those same arguments failed.
The unit test was racy but surprisingly never failed on CI. The reason
is we need to ensure ninja build somelib.so before running `make` into
the external project.
Dlang uses both integer version "levels" and arbitrary string
identifiers, and we support both, but don't mention it in the docs.
Also update a test case to pass one via declare_dependency. We already
test this kwarg for build_target.
The check for whether or not a file is allowed to be accessed from a
subproject fails if the subproject is accessed via a symlink. Use the
absolute path of the subproject without resolving symlinks to fix the
check.
Extend unit test 106 to check for this in the future.
Regression in commit 7c757dff71.
SubprojectHolder is no longer an ObjectHolder and says so via a TODO:
this means that we have to fiddle with held_object. Yay.
When a subproject is disabled on the initial configuration we should not
add it into self.coredata.initialized_subprojects because that will
prevent calling self.coredata.init_builtins() on a reconfigure if the
subproject gets enabled.
Fixes: #10225.
A single target could be picked for unity build, and in that case
extract_objects() should not be allowed.
Likewise for the opposite case, where extract_objects() should be allowed
if unity build is disabled for a single target. A test that covers that
case is added later.
There are a couple issues that combine to make the current handling a
bit confusing.
- we call it "install_dir_name" but it is only ever the class default
- CustomTarget always has it set to None, and then we check if it is
None then create a different variable with a safe fallback. The if is
useless -- it cannot fail, but if it did we'd get an undefined
variable error when we tried to use `dir_name`
Remove the special handling for CustomTarget. Instead, just always
accept None as a possible value of outdir_name when constructing install
data, and, if it is None, fall back to {prefix}/outdir regardless of
what type it used to be.
Fix "Tried to grab file outside current (sub)project" error when subproject exists within
a source tree but it is used through a symlink. Using subprojects as symlinks is very useful
feature when migrating an existing codebase to meson that all sources do not need to be
immediately moved to subprojects folder.
We validate a few things here, such as the non-presence of '@INPUT' in
an output name. These got moved out of the CustomTarget constructor in
commit 11f9638035 and into KwargInfo, but
only for kwargs that took multiple values. This caused configure_file()
and unstable_rust.bindgen() to stop checking for this.
Add a shared single-output KW and use it in both places. This now
dispatches to _output_validator.
configure_file now validates subdirectories in output names the same way
we do elsewhere, directly in the typed_kwargs and by specifying the
erroring kwarg.
The `install_headers` function now has an optional argument
`preserve_path` that allows installing multi-directory
headerfile structures that live alongside sourcecode with a
single command.
For example, the headerfile structure
headers = [
'one.h',
'two.h',
'alpha/one.h',
'alpha/two.h',
'alpha/three.h'
'beta/one.h'
]
can now be passed to `install_headers(headers, subdir: 'mylib', preserve_path: true)`
and the resulting directory tree will look like
{prefix}
└── include
└── mylib
├── alpha
│ ├── one.h
│ ├── two.h
│ └── three.h
├── beta
│ └── one.h
├── one.h
└── two.h
Fixes#3371
"targetting" is verb-derived adjective, which sort-of-works here, but
makes the whole sentence awkward, because there's no verb. Let's just
use present simple.
"tried to use" implies that the attempt was not successful, i.e. that meson
ignored the feature. But that is not what happens, apart from the warning the
feature works just fine. The new message is also shorter ;)
Older versions are not supported by the cmake module since 0.62.
This avoids having to hard-code the linux-bionic-gcc CI job as being
unable to run these tests, which leaves other older environments like
Debian 10 still trying to run them (and failing).

Otherwise it always returns the value for c++98, starting with MSVC 2017
15.7 or later. Earlier versions are not affected by this mis-feature.
See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/reference/zc-cplusplus?view=msvc-160
This was originally applied as 0b97d58548
but later reverted because it made the CI red. Try it again, now.

Some projects treat meson.project_source_root() as the root of the
dependency files, because the project itself merely wraps a bunch of
datafiles. Our validation to make sure this doesn't point to another
subproject, made use of pathlib.Path's generator for all component
paths, which... did not include the path itself. So go ahead and
explicitly check that too. Add a test case to verify it while we are at
it.

Test that add_project_dependencies() can only be used before build targets
have been declared. Also test that one cannot use override_dependency
on a superproject to inject a superproject's build products into the
subproject. This would violate the rule that build products cannot be used
with add_project_dependencies() (similar to e.g. compiler.has_function),
so check that meson detects the situation correctly.
This function can be used to add fundamental dependencies such as glib
to all build products in one fell swoop. This can be useful whenever,
due to a project's coding conventions, it is not really possible to
compile any source file without including the dependency.
