It was using ':' as a path separator while GCC uses ';' resulting in bogus
paths being returned. Instead assume that the compiler uses the platform native
separator.
The previous splitting code still worked sometimes because splitting
"C:/foo;C:/bar" resulted in the last part "/bar" being valid if "<DriveOfCWD>:/bar"
existed.
The fix also exposes a clang Windows bug where it uses the wrong separator:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D61121 . Use a regex to fix those first.
This resulted in linker errors when statically linking against a library which
had an external dependency linking against system libs.
Fixes#5386
Apparently we have no tests for this because this is broken pretty
badly. This extends the basic test to actually check for the correct
free-form argument and thus test this.
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.
The Intel compiler is strange. On Linux and macOS it's called ICC, and
it tries to mostly behave like gcc/clang. On Windows it's called ICL,
and tries to behave like MSVC. This makes the code that's used to
implement ICC support useless for supporting ICL, because their command
line interfaces are completely different.
This restrictuion exists for MSVC and clang-cl, but not for ICL which
actually does support C++11 as a distinct standard. This commmit pulls
that behavior out into a mixin class for ClangClCPPCompiler and
VisualStudioCPPCompiler, as well as moving the MSVC specific
functionality into the VisualStudioCPPCompiler class.
Currently C++ inherits C, which can lead to diamond problems. By pulling
the code out into a standalone mixin class that the C, C++, ObjC, and
Objc++ compilers can inherit and override as necessary we remove one
source of diamonding. I've chosen to split this out into it's own file
as the CLikeCompiler class is over 1000 lines by itself. This also
breaks the VisualStudio derived classes inheriting from each other, to
avoid the same C -> CPP inheritance problems. This is all one giant
patch because there just isn't a clean way to separate this.
I've done the same for Fortran since it effectively inherits the
CCompiler (I say effectively because was it actually did was gross
beyond explanation), it's probably not correct, but it seems to work for
now. There really is a lot of layering violation going on in the
Compilers, and a really good scrubbing would do this code a lot of good.
Some things, like `method[...](...)` or `x: ... = ...` python 3.5
doesn't support, so I made a comment instead with the intention that it
can someday be made into a real annotation.
When the '-Wl,-rpath-link' option refers to several folders, we can
either use one single entry, like this:
-Wl,-rpath-link,/path/to/folder1:/path/to/folder2:/path/to/folder3
...or we can use multiple entries, like this:
-Wl,-rpath-link,/path/to/folder1
-Wl,-rpath-link,/path/to/folder2
-Wl,-rpath-link,/path/to/folder3
Because the '-rpath-link' requires full folder paths, using the one
single entry option can result in a very long argument.
While this shouldn't be a problem, at least *one* toolchain (the latest
version of the Tensilica toolchain for Xtensa processors) segfaults when
using arguments that are too long.
Because other toolchains might be affected and because using multiple
entries instead of a very long one doesn't seem to have any drawback,
this patch changes the arguments building logic to use multiple
'-Wl,-rpath-link' entries.
Instad of having special casing of threads in the backends and
everywehre else, do what we did for openmp, create a real
dependency. Then make use of the fact that dependencies can now have
sub dependencies to add threads.
Previously cross, but not native, external args were used. Then in
d451a4bd97 the cross special cases were
removed, so external args are never used.
This commit switches that so they are always used. Sanity checking works
just the same as compiler checks like has header / has library.
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.
