When generating pkgconfig file for a library that links to an
uninstalled static library built by custom_target() Meson was crashing
when trying to access some attributes that does not exist on that class.
Also fix is_internal() implementation, it only really make sense on a
CustomTargetIndex or if CustomTarget has only a single output.
Add ability to mutate a target's `extra_files` list through the
rewriter.
The logic is copied from sources add/rm, but changes the `extra_files`
kwarg instead of the sources positional argument.
Has additional logic to handle creating the `extra_files` list if it
doesn't exist.
In 1fb6c93947 the intl dep gained support for static linking
which also forwarded this property to the iconv sub dependency.
The refactoring in 214d03568f lost this change, which results in
iconv getting linked dynamically again.
Forward static again to fix this.
These are actually just flags, they don't take any arguments (except
prefix, which was already handled correctly), and as such their
arguments should be booleans, not strings, and they should default to
False.
Currently there is a try/except around the function that detects and
rejects this, which instead of rejecting it, spawns a warning and
continue.
This warning exists because of 'test cases/vala/9 gir/' which passes a
vala generated output that isn't a return value (!!!) using string
joining with the meson.current_build_dir() function (also !!!) because
we officially document this (!!! for a third time) as the only way to
make a vala shared library generate a typelib with a custom_command from
the automatically generated gir:
https://mesonbuild.com/Vala.html#gobject-introspection-and-language-bindings
In #3061 we converted strings to Files, but only if none of them were
this vala hack. Due to the precise implementation, we also failed to
convert strings to Files if any other error occurred, but since we only
want to ignore errors for generated vala outputs, tighten that check and
specifically call out generated files in the warning.
Fixes#8635
There is a change here, in that packages has error messaging for using
IncludeDirs objects in the packages argument, but it never worked, so
the message was useless.
There are thee arguments that are passed directly to CustomTarget which
are not in the permittedKwargs: depends, depend_files, and build_always.
The first two are obviously generically useful, as they allow creating
correct ordering. The latter, not so much. Since it was an error to pass
it, we'll just delete it.
Use a proper install option for this. Now `install_<type>` can directly
override `install` instead of passing a boolean to the string kwarg
`install_dir_<type>`.
generate_gir forces building both the typelib and gir, and some people
only want one or the other (probably only the typelib?) which means
flagging the other as install_dir: false in the same way custom_target
supports.
As this always worked, albeit undocumented, make sure it keeps working.
It's pretty reasonable to allow, anyway.

This has been removed as an explicit package in impish. It seems that
having pkg-config installed and adding arm as an arch will cause it to
be generated automatically
Meson was passing only the first output and warning about it. To do this
easily, refactor construct_target_rel_path to return a list.
