The linker always args, as the name implies, should always be included. For
example, the AIX get_allow_undefined_link_args are a syntax error unless
the AIX get_linker_always_args are also used.
Without the -Xany flag, the ar command will complain when an .o file is
compiled for the non-default bit width. This change is necessary to allow
64-bit builds via a native (or cross) file.
Without this, MSVC and MSVC_VERSION won't be set by CMake during
platform detection, and the compiler will be an undefined mixture of
GNU and MSVC. In particular, find_package(opencv) will fail on Windows
when building with MSVC.
This is required to make `-include /path/to/custom/target.hpp`
work. This setup is used by wxWidgets and this PR is
required to use wxWidgets as a CMake subproject.
According to the specification:
https://testanything.org/tap-specification.html#skipping-tests
The harness should report the text after # SKIP\S*\s+ as a reason for
skipping.
(it's not exactly like the TODO directive, the phrasing/presentation of
the spec could be improved).
The compilers_detect function is only used in the qt module, which
checks every time before using a specific compiler, if it is found.
e.g.
meson.build:10:6: ERROR: MOC sources specified and couldn't find moc-qt5, please check your qt5 installation
In fact, the current check means we never even hit this error to begin
with, because we previously died on the uninformative error:
meson.build:10:6: ERROR: Program(s) ['moc'] not found or not executable
which doesn't actually tell the user why this matters, and is all around
a waste of time.
Fixes#5582
* mtest: TestResult.SKIP is not a failure
If some but not all tests in a run were skipped, then the overall result
is given by whether there were any failures among the non-skipped tests.

* Add test-cases for partially skipped TAP tests
issue7515.txt is the output of one of the real TAP tests in gjs, which
failed as a result of #7515. The version inline in meson.build is
a minimal reproducer.

The `debug` builtin option does not control whether or not the debug
CRT is used. Without this fix, when buildtype=debugoptimized or when
debug=true + b_vscrt=md, we will try to link to the debug libraries
found via cmake while linking with `/release`, which will cause a link
failure.
Windows Git users with symlinks have a constantly dirty repo from
this "a_symlink". This change generates a symlink in the build directory
when the test is run.
There is nothing to "warn" about, this is a completely routine
occurence. OTOH, when something is corrupted, we should warn. Keep
the red color and "WARNING:" prefix in that case.
Example output:
$ ninja -C build

Since upgrading Boost to version 1.73, this test segfaults on macOS

Meson calls `path/to/clang++ --version` to guess which build toolchain the
user has picked to build the source code. For the Qualcomm LLVM toolchain,
the output have an unusual output as shown below:
```
clang version 8.0.12
Snapdragon LLVM ARM Compiler 8.0.12 (based on llvm.org 7.0+)
Target: arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi
Thread model: posix
Repository: (ssh://git-hexagon-aus.qualcomm.com:...)
InstalledDir: /pkg/qct/software/llvm/release/arm/8.0.12/bin
```
Another unusual pattern is the output of `path/to/ld.qcld --version`:
```
ARM Linker from Snapdragon LLVM ARM Compiler Version 8.0.12
ARM Linker based on LLVM version: 8.0
```
The Meson logic is modified accordingly so that Meson can correctly
determine toolchain as "LLVM aarch64 cross-compiler on GNU/Linux64 OS".
This is the expected output of
`meson --native-file native_file.ini --cross-file cross_file.ini build/aarch64-debug/`:
```
...
C++ compiler for the host machine: ... (clang 8.0.12 "clang version 8.0.12")
C++ linker for the host machine: ... ld.lld 8.0.12
...
```
This creates a full set of option in environment that mirror those in
coredata, this mirroring of the coredata structure is convenient because
lookups int env (such as when initializing compilers) becomes a straight
dict lookup, with no list iteration. It also means that all of the
command line and machine files are read and stored in the correct order
before they're ever accessed, simplifying the logic of using them.
This puts all of them together, in the next patch they'll be pulled back
out, but it's convenient to start that refactor by moving them all
there, then moving them into env as a whole.
This attempts to clarify the usage of strings and arrays, as well as
document the boolean type that has been exposed via the project and
built-in options
This is like the project options, but for meson builtin options.
The only real differences here have to do with the differences between
meson builtin options and project options. Some meson options can be set
on a per-machine basis (build.pkg_config_path vs pkg_config_path) others
can be set on a per-subproject basis, but should inherit the parent
setting.
