This returns a list out of th keys of a dict. In both cases of use
remaining though it's used for checking membership, checking for list
membership, lists are O(n) lookup, while dicts are O(1), so removing
the abstraction reduces typing and improves performance.
Currently the builtins are stored as lists, then there are a mess of
functions which take said lists, check what the type of the first
thing is, and then extract data from various points in the list based
on that.
This is stupid. This is what structs/classes are for.
I recall that @jpakkane never wanted this, but @nirbheek did, but then
@nirbheek changed his mind.
I am fine either way except for the cross inconsistency that exists
today: There is no `c_preproc_args` or similar one can put in the cross
file, so no way to replicate the effect of CPPFLAGS during cross
compilation.
Instead of hard-coding the fact that load_configs() searches for files under
meson/native, pass in the subdirectory allowing the cross-file code to use the
same logic.
Before, the logic initialization compiler options from environment
variables vs config files was strewn about. Now, it is consolidated. We
leverage the new `envconfig.py` module to expose the configuration data
to `compilers.py` without creating an import cycle.
'c_arg' entries should become *both* compiler options and external
peprocessor options for C. (And likewise for a few other languages.)
Seems inconsistent to me, but this is the status quo.
This allows the person running configure (either a developer, user, or
distro maintainer) to keep a configuration of where various kinds of
files should end up.
Instead use coredata.compiler_options.<machine>. This brings the cross
and native code paths closer together, since both now use that.
Command line options are interpreted just as before, for backwards
compatibility. This does introduce some funny conditionals. In the
future, I'd like to change the interpretation of command line options so
- The logic is cross-agnostic, i.e. there are no conditions affected by
`is_cross_build()`.
- Compiler args for both the build and host machines can always be
controlled by the command line.
- Compiler args for both machines can always be controlled separately.
Fixes this annoying warning while running the tests:
mesonbuild/coredata.py:237: DeprecationWarning: The SafeConfigParser
class has been renamed to ConfigParser in Python 3.2. This alias will be
removed in future versions. Use ConfigParser directly instead.
Our builddir ABI is stable across minor (stable) releases, so there is
no need to force a wipe. We already release pretty often, no need to
force people to wipe twice as often.
* Fixed spelling
* Merged the Buildoptions and Projectinfo interpreter
* Moved detect_compilers to Environment
* Added removed test case
* Split detect_compilers and moved even more code into Environment
* Moved set_default_options to coredata
* Small code simplification in mintro.run
* Move cmd_line_options back to `environment`
We don't actually wish to persist something this unstructured, so we
shouldn't make it a field on `coredata`. It would also be data
denormalization since the information we already store in coredata
depends on the CLI args.
Write command line options into a separate file to be able to
reconfigure from scatch in the case coredata cannot be loaded. The most
common case is when we are reconfiguring with a newer meson version.
This means that we should try as much as possible to maintain backward
compatibility for the cmd_line.txt file format.
The main difference with a normal reconfigure is it will use new
default options values and will read again environment variables like
CFLAGS, etc.

PR #3717 imports ARMCLANG compilers in __init__, but does not add them to
__all__, so they are not re-exported by the compilers package like
everything else.

Mention that Sider runs flake8
Suggest seting flake8 as a pre-commit hook
Currently the former will be parsed as [''], while the latter is parsed
as [] in python. This makes for some obnoxious special handling
depending on what the user passes. This is even more obnoxious since for
string type arguments this doesn't require special handling.
