We need to run it as an external command at build time anyway, and we
detect it by looking it up as an ExternalProgram. It seems odd to then
import it into Meson's python interpreter and run the main function.
Moreover, this errors out when you are running two different pythons,
one for Meson and one for hotdoc. For example, when hotdoc is installed
normally, but you're testing Meson against a nondefault newer version of
python.
We consistently use the "dependencies" kwarg to refer to C-like
CFLAGS/LDFLAGS interfaces. And for hotdoc, we actually accept libraries
for this as well, as we may want to document their (generated?) sources,
so we want their CFLAGS too.
But we also accepted custom targets and just added a build order
dependency on these, which was odd and typically we call that "depends".
Let's deprecate this in favor of the depends kwarg.
Internally we pass this as extra_depends to the CustomTarget
initializer, so it makes sense to call it that rather than confusing the
topic by referring to "dependencies", a term that indicates
CFLAGS/LDFLAGS interfaces.
GeneratedLists as sources to `gnome.gdbus_codegen` worked until
version 0.60 of Meson, but broke in 0.61 because of the conversion to
typed_pos_args and typed_kwargs. Reinstate this by adding them to the
decorators and annotations.
Note that gdbus_codegen desugars to two custom_targets and therefore the
generator is invoked twice. This is not optimal, but it should not be
an issue and can be changed later.

While generators also used to work, they are a bit tricky because
gdbus_codegen desugars to two custom_targets and therefore the generator
is invoked twice. This should not be a problem, but be explicit and
leave that to a separate commit to highlight the problem.

We accept a list of known kwargs of required types, but also arbitrary
kwargs understood by the hotdoc program (sometimes via extensions). Now
that we can partially type-check kwargs, do so here.
This catches some optimization problems, mostly in the use of `all()`
and `any()`. Basically writing `any([x == 5 for x in f])` vs `any(x == 5
for x in f)` reduces the performance because the entire concrete list
must first be created, then iterated over, while in the second f is
iterated and checked element by element.
itstool detects a language code from the mo file’s basename,
so when 26c1869a14
changed the file name to be prefixed with project name,
values like “my-project-xx” ended up in the `xml:lang` attribute
of the generated page files, instead of the expected
IETF BCP 47 language tag.
Let’s fix it by passing a locale code to itstool explicitly.
This removes the need for the use of the global statement. I've also
updated the test that overrides this to use mock.patch instead of hand
monkey patching.
It turns out we don't generally need to proxy every compiler ever
through the top-level package. The number of times we directly poke at
one is negligible and direct imports are pretty clean.
Gettext should search for input files relative to the (sub)project
source root, not the global source root.
This change exposes a root_subdir member in ModuleState.
wayland-scanner can generate header files that only include
wayland-client-core.h using a flag.
Add a core_only option to scan_xml to support this use case.
Strictly speaking code restructuring isn't needed, but making this PEP8
compliant results in indentation of the code that reduces the
readability. By moving the offending code on the outside of the method
call, the readability is maintained.
Generally plumb through the values of get_option() passed to
install_dir, and use this to establish the install plan name. Fixes
several odd cases, such as:
- {datadir} being prepended to "share" or "include"
- dissociating custom install directories and writing them out as
{prefix}/share/foo or {prefix}/lib/python3.10/site-packages
This is the second half of #9478Fixes#10601
The name can be None if a library is not passed as a positional
argument, and the name keyword argument is not provided. We shouldn't
allow that to happen.
There are still a lot of errors here due to a mixture of really bad
design (adding extra attributes to objects), and legitimate type errors
(passing a str where a List[str] is expected). I suspect a lot of these
cases aren't hit for some reason.
`configure_file` is both an extremely complicated implementation, and
a strange place for copying. It's a bit of a historical artifact, since
the fs module didn't yet exist. It makes more sense to move this to the
fs module and deprecate this `configure_file` version.
This new version works at build time rather than configure time, which
has the disadvantage it can't be passed to `run_command`, but with the
advantage that changes to the input don't require a full reconfigure.
Thanks to `ModuleInfo`, all modules are just named `foo.py` instead of
`unstable_foo.py`, which simplifies the import method a bit. This also
allows for accurate FeatureNew/FeatureDeprecated use, as we know when
the module was added and if/when it was stabilized.
We're going to do more with this in the next commit, but this just adds
the information for now. This allows the next commit have 100% mv
changes for some of the modules, which makes review easier
Instead of using FeatureNew/FeatureDeprecated in the module.
The goal here is to be able to handle information about modules in a
single place, instead of having to handle it separately. Each module
simply defines some metadata, and then the interpreter handles the rest.
(b, name) will always have the canonical tool name, not just a
potentially weird bin path. We need to check stderr for qt4 tools other
than lrelease, but we keyed off of the tool bin path, so matches were by
no means guaranteed, and specifically, would fail if the tool is looked
up via bindir.
This really should always have checked the canonical name, which is
guaranteed to be correct.
