It doesn't make much sense to have this and not also have
cross-compilers (so any use of this is already pretty suspect as
probably wrong when cross-compiling).
This information is accessible anyhow via environment.coredata.
Meson itself *almost* only cares about the build and host platforms. The
exception is it takes a `target_machine` in the cross file and exposes
it to the user; but it doesn't do anything else with it. It's therefore
overkill to put target in `PerMachine` and `MachineChoice`. Instead, we
make a `PerThreeMachine` only for the machine infos.
Additionally fix a few other things that were bugging me in the process:
- Get rid of `MachineInfos` class. Since `envconfig.py` was created, it
has no methods that couldn't just got on `PerMachine`
- Make `default_missing` and `miss_defaulting` work functionally. That
means we can just locally bind rather than bind as class vars the
"unfrozen" configuration. This helps prevent bugs where one forgets
to freeze a configuration.
This avoids the duplication where the option is stored in a dict at its
name, and also contains its own name. In general, the maxim in
programming is things shouldn't know their own name, so removed the name
field just leaving the option's position in the dictionary as its name.
This function is currently setup with keyword arguments defaulting to
None. However, it is never called without passing all of it's arguments
explicitly, and only one of it's arguments would actually be valid as
None. So just drop that, and make them all positional. And annotate
them.
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.
Warn when someone tries to use append() or prepend() on an env var
which already has an operation set on it. People seem to think that
multiple append/prepend operations stack, but they don't.

we can avoid writing code like:
a = c[0]
b = c[1]
by using:
a, b = c
or
a = c[0]
b = c[1:]
by using:
a, *b = c
This saves just a bit of code and is a teeny bit faster. But mostly
for less code
Currently this is implemented as range(min(len(a), len(b)), an then
indexing into a and b to get what we actually want. Fortunately python
provides a function called zip that just does this.
On Windows, program on a different drive than srcdir won't have
an expressible relative path; cmd_path will be absolute instead and
shouldn't get added into build_def_files.
This function is used just once. It also seems all policy and no
mechanism (it raises, it calls the same function to do all the work
twice in a simple way). This makes it seem to be as a good candidate for
inlining.
`environment` and `coredata` are woefully intertwined and while this
change doesn't fix that, but at least it makes it easier to follow.
This patch creates an enum for selecting libtype as static, shared,
prefer-static, or prefer-shared. This also renames 'static-shared'
with 'prefer_static' and 'shared-static' with 'prefer_shared'. This is
just a refactor with no behavioral changes or user facing changes.
This provides an initial support for parsing TAP output. It detects failures
and skipped tests without relying on exit code, as well as early termination
of the test due to an error or a crash.
For now, subtests are not recorded in the TestRun object. However, because the
TAP output goes on stdout, it is printed by --print-errorlogs when a test does
not behave as expected. Handling subtests as TestRuns, and serializing them
to JSON, can be added later.
The parser was written specifically for Meson, and comes with its own
test suite.
Fixes#2923.
First of all, I'd like compilers and other modules that environment.py
currently imports to be able to take these without creating
hard-to-follow module cycles.
Second of all, environment.py's exact purpose seems a bit obscured.
Splitting the data types (and basic pure functions) from the more
complex logic that infers that data seems like a good way to separate
concerns.
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.
