Dependencies is already a large and complicated package without adding
programs to the list. This also allows us to untangle a bit of spaghetti
that we have.
If a custom_target output is a directory, we install it as a directory,
not as a file. And, we try to track subdirectories which are created so
uninstalling works. But one directory creation did not go through
DirMaker, in the case where the output directory does not have any
further subdirectories.
Consolidate on makedirs, since I don't see much point in using os.mkdir
right here.
This requires quite a complex and messy logic.
As @dcbaker suggested in #8491, this could be replaced by
an abstraction over linker flags instead of having GNU flags
translated.
get_non_matching_default_options is checking a string from
project_default_options against a validated value from
coredata.options.
Passing the string to validate_value ensures that the comparison
is sound; otherwise, "false" might be compared against False
and a bogus difference is printed.
When reverting from 0.57 to 0.56, one can see an error like this:
File /Users/pm215/src/qemu-for-merges/meson/mesonbuild/coredata.py,
line 1016, in load
obj = pickle.load(f)
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mesonbuild.mesonlib.universal';
'mesonbuild.mesonlib' is not a package
FAILED: build.ninja
The reason is that the old version fails to resolve mesonbuild.mesonlib,
which is a similar situation to the existing AttributeError check. Raise
a MesonException for ModuleNotFoundError as well, so that reconfiguration
proceeds using cmd_line.txt.
Previously builds would *potentially* get sammed with messaging at
configure time that duplicate entries in an array would be an error in
the future, and the cause was because the same entries were getting
added over and over to pkg_config_path.p
This is a useful thing to document. I wasn't really sure where to put
it, but since it's developer oriented I figured in the code itself was
probably more useful and more likely to be seen than in the markdown
that generates the website.
The script dir is never really used since meson --internal handles this.
The last remaining use of the raw script dir got removed in commit
522392e755.
In commit caab4d3d, the uid and gid arguments passed to os.chown() by
set_chown() were accidentally swapped, causing files to end up with
incorrect owner/group if the owner and group are not the same.
Also update the documentation to better indicate which argument to
install_mode is which.

All changes were created by running
"pyupgrade --py3-only --keep-percent-format"
and committing the results. I have not touched string formatting for
now.
- use set literals
- simplify .format() parameter naming
- remove __future__
- remove default "r" mode for open()
- use OSError rather than compatibility aliases
- remove stray parentheses in function(generator) scopes
- ModuleState is now a real class that will have methods in the future
for actions modules needs, instead of using interpreter internal API.
- New ModuleObject base class, similar to InterpreterObject, that should
be used by all objects returned by modules. Its methods gets the
ModuleState passed as first argument. It has a `methods` dictionary to
define what is public API that can be called from build definition.
- Method return value is not required to be a ModuleReturnValue any
more, it can be any type that interpreter can holderify, including
ModuleObject.
- Legacy module API is maintained until we port all modules.
In the future modules should be updated:
- Use methods dict.
- Remove snippets.
- Custom objects returned by modules should all be subclass of
ModuleObject to get the state iface in their methods.
- Modules should never call into interpreter directly and instead state
object should have wrapper API.
- Stop using ModuleReturnValue in methods that just return simple
objects like strings. Possibly remove ModuleReturnValue completely
since all objects that needs to be processed by interpreter (e.g.
CustomTarget) should be created through ModuleState API.
