We allow custom_target() but check for it based on hasattr, ever since
the initial implementation way back in the day, in commit
66a6ea984b. This is a bit broken because
various objects might support that but still aren't supposed to work. We
can actually just use isintance checks like we do immediately above,
which are more accurate and avoid crashes on things that aren't even
targets at all, like run_target(). Although custom_target indexes are
actually targets those didn't work either.
Fixes#9648
Since it's deprecated anyway, we don't really want to plumb it all the
way down into the build and backend layers. Instead, we can just turn
it into a `win_subsystem` value in the interpreter if `win_subsystem`
isn't already set.
This would be either the value `kwargs['install']`, or `False`. There
isn't any case that `BuildTarget.need_install` handles that
`BuildTarget.install` doesn't handle, if we just initialized it
correctly. So, just set Target.install correctly in the super
initializer, and do away with need_install.
Also move it into the Jar class. This is an exclusive Jar keyword
argument, and is only used inside java paths, so there's no reason to
have this in all build targets.
This detects cases where module A imports a function from B, and C
imports that same function from A instead of B. It's not part of the API
contract of A, and causes innocent refactoring to break things.
This fixes regression caused by
3162b901ca
that changes the order in which libraries are put on the link command.
In addition, that commit was wrong because libraries from dependencies
were processed before process_compiler() is called, which that commit
wanted to avoid.
We need a union of the compilers used by the target, and by those used
by all dependencies, not all the compilers in all projects. We do,
however, need to look compilers up from all possible compilers, as a
dependency that is a subproject could use a language not present in the
current project.
This saves on a 1500-line import at startup and may be skipped entirely
if no compiled languages are used. In exchange, we move the
implementation to a new file that is imported instead.
Followup to commit ab20eb5bbc.
To take good decisions we'll need to know if we are a Rust library which
is only know after processing source files and compilers.
Note that is it not the final list of compilers, some can be added in
process_compilers_late(), but those are compilers for which we don't
have source files any way.
Case 1:
- Prog links to static lib A
- A link_whole to static lib B
- B link to static lib C
- Prog dependencies should be A and C but not B which is already
included in A.
Case 2:
- Same as case 1, but with A being installed.
- To be useful, A must also include all objects from C that is not
installed.
- Prog only need to link on A.
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.
The library names are directly mapped to filenames by meson while the
crate name gets spaces/dashes replaced by underscores. This works fine
to a certain degree except that rustc expects a certain filename scheme
for rlibs that matches the crate name.
When using such a library as a dependency of a dependency compilation
will fail with a confusing error message.

We need to remember its value when reconfiguring, but the Build object
is not reused, only coredata is.
This also makes CLI more consistent by allowing `-Dvsenv=true` syntax.
Fixes: #11309
The current check results in *any* value to `export_dynamic` generating
vala import targets, even `false`. This is pretty clearly wrong, as it
really wants to treat an unset export_dynamic as false.
Generated objects can already be passed in the "objects" keyword argument
as long as you go through an extract_objects() indirection. Allow the
same even directly, since that is more intuitive than having to add them
to "sources".

Hook this up to installed dependency manifests. This is often needed
above and beyond just an SPDX string -- e.g. many licenses have custom
copyright lines.
At least, if you tried to use it when passing an install_dir. Because
T.Sequence is horrible and we should never use it, and the annotations
are a lie that produces bugs.
So, fix the annotations on CustomTarget to never allow this to happen
again, and also fix the function too. Move some definitions elsewhere
inline to satisfy the linter.
