This allows changing the crate name with which a library ends up being
available inside the Rust code, similar to cargo's dependency renaming
feature or `extern crate foo as bar` inside Rust code.
Rust has a `debug_assert!()` macro, which is designed to be toggled on
the command line. It is on by default in debug builds, and off by
default in release builds, in cargo. This matches what meson's b_ndebug
option does in `if-release` mode.
Rust doesn't have a concept of dependency compile arguments, i.e.
something like headers. Dependencies are linked in and all required
metadata is provided by the linker flags.
During evaluation of codeblocks, we start off with an iteration of
nodes, and then while evaluating them we may update the global
self.current_node context. When catching and formatting errors, we
didn't take into account that the node might be updated from the
original top-level iteration.
Switch to formatting errors using self.current_node instead, to ensure
we can point at the likely most-accurate actual cause of an error.
Also update the current node in a few more places, so that function
calls always see the function call as the current node, even if the most
recently parsed node was an argument to the function call.
Fixes#11643
Allows getting closer to `./run_project_tests.py -- -Dwerror=true`.
- when argc and argv are not *both* used, there's a standard, compliant
mechanism to mark the variable as unused
- generated code should not build as -Werror
- more thoroughly comment out some commented code
Rustc as of version 1.61.0 has support for controlling when
whole-archive linking takes place, previous to this it tried to make a
good guess about what you wanted, which worked most of the time. This is
now implemented.
Additionally, rustc makes some assumptions about library names
(specifically static names), that meson does not keep. This can be fixed
with rustc 1.67, where a new +verbatim modifier has been added. We can
then force rustc to use the name we give it. Before that, we can sneak
through `/WHOELARCHIVE:` in cases of dynamic linking (into a dll or
exe), but we can't force the archiver to do what we want (rustc
considers the archiver to be an implementation detail). The only
solution I can come up with is to copy the library to the format that
rustc expects. I've run into some issues with that as well, so we warn
in that case.
The decisions to leave static into static broken on MSVC for 1.61–1.66
was made because:
1) The work around is non-trivial, and we would have to support that
workaround for a long time
2) The number of users of Rust in Meson is small
3) The number of users of Rust in Meson on Windows, with MSVC is tiny
4) Using rustup to update rustc on windows is trivial, and solves the
problem completely

In the even that all of the inputs are generated, and they're all
generated into the same folder, and there are no subfolders, we would
fail to correctly handle all of the files after the main file. Let's fix
that.t
For static library crates that depend on other internal static library
crates, all link_with targets get promoted to link_whole targets. Due to
a bug, only link_with targets are considered when generating a Rust
target for the ninja backend. This made it impossible to link a Rust
static library with another internal Rust static library.
This change fixes that issue by chaining link_whole_targets with
link_targets, just like many other languages within the ninja backend.
Clippy is a compiler wrapper for rust that provides an extra layer of
linting. It's quite popular, but unfortunately doesn't provide the
output of the compiler that it's wrapping in it's output, so we don't
detect that clippy is rustc. This small patch adds a new compiler class
(that is the Rustc class with a different id) and the necessary logic to
detect that clippy is in fact rustc)
Fixes: #8767
When building on Linux, I see:
rustc -C linker=cc --color=always --crate-type rlib --crate-name rs_math -g --emit dep-info=rs_math.d --emit link -L /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -o librs_math.rlib -l static=m ../rs_math.rs
error: failed to add native library /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.a: file too small to be an archive
I think the "file too small to be an archive" message is coming from
libLLVM, and is a case of LLVM not handling this type of "script
archive". So, possibly this is just LLVM not handling a linking case.
The rust_args usage in meson.build is invalid, but required to
reproduce the issue in the test case. Perhaps meson should
automatically add the library include path via the dep_m meson object,
or maybe the meson.build can add the link path in a better way.
Changing '-l static=m' to '-l dylib=m' appears to fix this case. (See
comments in meson.build.)
Reworks:
* Add MESON_SKIP_TEST error for darwin from polyglot test
* Remove dependencies from executable
Dylan's changes:
* Add support for both static and shared testing
* Test with pkg-config, cmake, and system
* reformat to meson's style

This has a couple of advantages over rolling it by hand:
1. it correctly handles include_directories objects, which is always
handy
2. it correctly generates a depfile for you, which makes it more
reliable
3. it requires less typing
There are still caveats here. Rust/cargo handles generated sources by
writing out all targets of a single repo into a single output directory,
setting a path to that via a build-time environment variable, and then
include those files via a set of functions and macros. Meson's build
layout is naturally different, and ninja makes working with environment
variables at compile time difficult.
Fixes#8157
Like other language specific modules this module is module for holding
rust specific helpers. This commit adds a test() function, which
simplifies using rust's internal unittest mechanism.
Rust tests are generally placed in the same code files as they are
testing, in contrast to languages like C/C++ and python which generally
place the tests in separate translation units. For meson this is
somewhat problematic from a repetition point of view, as the only
changes are generally adding --test, and possibly some dependencies.
The rustmod.test() method provides a mechanism to remove the repatition:
it takes a rust target, copies it, and then addes the `--test` option,
then creates a Test() target with the `rust` protocol. You can pass
additional dependencies via the `dependencies` keyword. This all makes
for a nice, DRY, test definition.
Rust has it's own built in unit test format, which is invoked by
compiling a rust executable with the `--test` flag to rustc. The tests
are then run by simply invoking that binary. They output a custom test
format, which this patch adds parsing support for. This means that we
can report each subtest in the junit we generate correctly, which should
be helpful for orchestration systems like gitlab and jenkins which can
parse junit XML.
Using the std option, so now `rust_std=..` will work. I've chosen to use
"std" even though rust calls these "editions", as meson refers to
language versions as "standards", which makes meson feel more uniform,
and be less surprising.
Fixes: #5100
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
When building a Rust target with Rust library dependencies, an
`--extern` argument is now specified to avoid ambiguity between the
dependency library, and any crates of the same name in `rustc`'s
private sysroot.
Includes an illustrative test case.
- Adds a `crate_type` kwarg to library targets, allowing the different
types of Rust [linkage][1].
- Shared libraries use the `dylib` crate type by default, but can also
be `cdylib`
- Static libraries use the `rlib` crate type by default, but can also
be `staticlib`
- If any Rust target has shared library dependencies, add the
appropriate linker arguments, including rpath for the sysroot of the
Rust compiler
