* In `CudaDependency._detect_language`, the first detected language is
considered the linking one. Since `nvcc`/`cuda` implicitly know where the
cuda dependency lives, this leads to situations where `cpp` as linking
language is erroneously detected as `cuda` and then misses the `-L` argument.
Using the keyword argument dependencies with compiler.links() for vala doesn't work as the library being linked to needs to be prefixed with --pkg= before being passed to valac.
This uses objfw-config to get to the flags, however, there's still
several todos that can only be addressed once dependencies can have
per-language flags.
GCC only has very limited support for Objective-C and doesn't support
any of the modern features, so whenever Clang is available, it should be
used instead. Essentially, the only reason to ever use GCC for
Objective-C is that Clang simply does not support the target system.
Running `touch` on a tracked file in Git, to update its timestamp, and
then running `meson dist` would cause dist to fail:
ERROR: Repository has uncommitted changes that will not be included in the dist tarball
Use --allow-dirty to ignore the warning and proceed anyway
Unlike `git status` and `git diff`, `git diff-index` doesn't refresh the
index before comparing, so stat changes are assumed to imply content
changes. Run `git update-index -q --refresh` first to refresh the index.

C#, Java, and Swift targets were manually collecting compiler arguments
rather than using the helper function for this purpose. This caused each
target type to add arguments in a different order, and to forget to add
some arguments respectively:
C#: /nologo, -warnaserror
Java: warning level (-nowarn, -Xlint:all, -Xdoclint:all), debug arguments
(-g, -g:none), -Werror
Swift: -warnings-as-errors
Fix this. Also fix up some no-longer-unused argument processing in the
Compiler implementations.
If nasm is not defined in cross file binaries we can fallback to build
machine nasm.
When cross compiling C code we need a different gcc binary for native
and cross targets, e.g. `gcc` and `x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc`. But when
cross compiling NASM code the compiler is the same, it is the source
code that has to be made for the target platform. We can thus use nasm
from build machine's PATH to cross compile for Windows on Linux for
example. The difference is the arguments Meson will pass when invoking
nasm e.g. `-fwin64`. That is already handled by NasmCompiler class.
The docs didn't really explain what the issue was with using it. And
it's not actually a "crash" either way.
The FeatureNew mentions that "name" is new, but it is standard for
these warnings to tell you both the type of object you're operating on
and the name of the method that is an issue. This omitted the former,
and was very confusing.
The code would create a dictionary that was of type `str : list[str] |
str | None`. Then would later try to call `len(' '.join(dict[key]))`.
This would result in two different bugs:
1. If the value is `None` it would except, since None isn't iterable
and cannot be converted to a string
2. If the value was a string, then it would double the length of the
actual string and return that, by adding a space between each
character
This allows tests to check whether stdin is a tty to figure out if they're
running in interactive mode or not.
It also makes sure that tests that are not running in interactive mode
don't inadvertendly try to read from stdin.
This is very similar to --gdb, except it doesn't spawn GDB, but
connects stdin/stdout/stderr directly to the test itself. This allows
interacting with integration tests that spawn a shell in a container
or virtual machine when the test fails.
In systemd we're migrating our integration tests to run using the
meson test runner. We want to allow interactive debugging of failed
tests directly in the virtual machine or container that is spawned
to run the test. To make this possible, we need meson test to connect
stdin/stdout/stderr of the test directly to the user's terminal, just
like is done with the --gdb option.
When getting debug file arguments we can sometimes pass None, where a
None is unexpected. This becomes a particular problem in the Cuda
compiler, where the output will unconditionally be concatenated with a
static string, resulting in an uncaught exception. This is really easy
to spot once we annotate the functions in question, where a static type
checker like mypy easily spots the issue.
This commit adds those annotations, and then fixes the resulting error.

Any code that needs to know mesonlib.python_command currently assumes
the PyInstaller bundle reference is added to the sys module, which means
that it assumes the only freeze tool used is PyInstaller. Really, all we
need to check is sys.frozen as it's never normally set, but always set
for a freeze. We don't care if it was PyInstaller specifically, and we
don't need its bundle directory.

Popen_safe_logged has a small inefficiency. It evaluates the stripped
version of stdout/stderr before checking if it exists, for logging
purposes. This would sometimes crash, if it was None instead of ''.
Fixes#12979
It is generally accepted practice to convert dict.keys() to a list
before iterating over it and e.g. deleting values, as keys returns a
live-action view. In this case, we use the difference of *two* dict
keys, which returns a regular non-view set and doesn't need protecting.
Iteration order doesn't matter (the set already randomizes it anyway).
Avoid the cost of converting to a list.
Only Environment and ConfigurationData are mutable. However, only
ConfigurationData becomes immutable after first use which is
inconsistent.
This deprecates modification after first use of Environment object and
clarify documentation.
We have seen a number of bugs from people confused by warning that the
need both a C and C++ compiler to use the CMake method. This attempts
to provide a more helpful error message.
When a user writes `import'foo')`, Meson checks the
`mesonbuild/modules/` directory for a package called `foo.py`, and
attempts to import it. We don't want to expose any implementation detail
packages like `_qt.py`, so if someone write `import('_qt')`, we should
immediately give a "doesn't exist" error.
Since it's an implementation detail, and shouldn't be exposed. This also
helps give better error messages when a user writes `import('qt')`,
since otherwise you get an error about `qt doesn't have an initialize
method`, and now you get `qt module doesn't exist`.
