install_subdir() with a non-existing subdir creates the directory in the
target directory. This seems like an implementation detail but is quite useful
to create new directories for e.g. configuration or plugins in the installed
locations.
git bisect says this started with 8fe8161014.
Let's add a test for it and document it to make this behavior official.
Limitation: it can only create at the install_dir location, trying to create
nested subdirectories does not work and indeed creates the wrong directory
structure. That is a bug that should be fixed separately:
install_subdir('blah',
install_dir: get_option('prefix'))
install_subdir('sub/foobar',
install_dir: get_option('prefix'))
install_subdir('foo/baz',
install_dir: get_option('prefix'))
$ tree ../_inst
../_inst
├── baz
├── blah
└── foobar

This allows representing functions like assert(), which take optional
positional arguments, which are not variadic. More importnatly you can
represent a function like (* means optional, but possitional):
```txt
func(str, *int, *str)
```
typed_pos_args will check that all of your types are correct, and if not
provide None, which allow simplifying a number of implementation details
We don't do a very good job of type checking in the interpreter,
sometimes we leave it to the mid layers of backends to do that (layering
violations) and sometimes we just don't check them at all. When we do
check them it's a ton of boilerplate and complicates the code. This
should help quite a bit.
Re-implement it in backend using the same code path as for
custom_target(). This for example handle setting PATH on Windows when
command is an executable.
Both Clang and GCC support using multiple threads for preforming link
time optimizaions, and they can now be configured using the
`-Db_lto_threads` option.
Fixes#7820
This new keyword argument makes it possible to run specific
test setups only on a subset of the tests. For example, to
mark some tests as slow and avoid running them by default:
add_test_setup('quick', exclude_suites: ['slow'], is_default: true)
add_test_setup('slow')
It will then be possible to run the slow tests with either
`meson test --setup slow` or `meson test --suite slow`.
[why]
In test case 10 the project is installed twice. This has been introduced
with commit
55abe16 unit tests: Test that relative install_rpath works correctly
where the cxx tests where added by copy and paste.
[how]
First test all build rpaths, then after install all install rpaths.
[note]
The aforementioned commit is a bit strange in that it adds a tests with
a relative rpath with cxx files but not with c files.

[why]
If we build and test a library we need to make sure that we find the
currently build library object first, before an older system installed
one.
This can be broken if the library in question is installed in a custom
path, and another library we depend on also is installed there.
[how]
Just move the rpath to the current build artifacts to the front.
Solves #8030.

aligning along the left is, I think, what most projects want to do.
Aligning along the middle looks subjectively ugly, and objectively
prevents me from further indenting an element, e.g.
Build information:
prefix : /usr
sysconfdir : /etc
conf file : /etc/myprogram.conf
This both moves the env reading to configuration time, which is useful,
and also simplifies the implementation of the boost dependency. The
simplification comes from being able to delete basically duplicated code
since the values will be in the Properties if they exist at all.
This is PEP8 convention for a const variable. Also, make the type
Mapping, which doesn't have mutation methods. This means mypy will warn
us if someone tries to change this.
* doc: fix hotdoc misuse for dynamically generated content
hotdoc has a native include feature for including files inline. Use this
to generate one file for each dynamically generated code block, and
include that file in Commands.md; see:
https://hotdoc.github.io/syntax-extensions.html#smart-file-inclusion-syntax
This permits us to move back to using the in-tree version of the hotdoc
*.md sources, thus fixing the incorrect inclusion of "builddir/" in the
"Edit on github" links which resulted from using copies as the source.
Fixes#8061
* doc: call the dummy file a "stamp" as it is a better known term
It is cleaner than collections.namedtuple. It also catches that "count()" is
a method on tuple, so rename the field to num_tests.

Pass the StringIO object to the parse method instead, because
there will be no T.Iterator[str] to use in the asynchronous
case.

This patches takes the options work to it's logical conclusion: A single
flat dictionary of OptionKey: UserOptions. This allows us to simplify a
large number of cases, as we don't need to check if an option is in this
dict or that one (or any of 5 or 6, actually).
I would have prefered to do these seperatately, but they are combined in
some cases, so it was much easier to convert them together.
this eliminates the builtins_per_machine dict, as it's duplicated with
the OptionKey's machine parameter.
It's a bit odd we have a test for an external project that's not even in
the meson organization. Regardless, the json file was recently replaced
by a cson file. There is an coffee-script-notation parser in pypi,
but I couldn't get it to work. Just delete the test
As a necessity nix adds a bunch of rpaths to files, this is unavoidable
do to the way nix package management works. Meson doesn't expect this
however, and fails all rpath tests. To correct this we just ignore any
rpath entries that start with `/nix`.
env.detect_<lang>_compiler only checks that there is a binary called
whatever that returns a version. There are several cases where the found
binary doesn't work:
1) gcc for ojbc[pp], when support isn't compiled in.
2) the compiler is broken (rust in appveyor somtimes)
Because of that we need to call compiler.sanity_check() as well, and if
we get an EnvironmentException from that skip the language
Also, instead of having a long line of try: ... except: pass, roll all
of the checking up into a loop using getattr(), which is less code and
makes adding a new language easier
