As mentioned in #4407, if dependency('boost') fails, the error message
is 'Dependency "boost" not found, tried' (sic).
Similar to line 1451 above, suppress reporting the tried methods
returned by log_tried(), if the list is empty (as is the case with
boost)
This reduces the build time about 2 sec. The result itself is not hard
to calculate. However, persistent join calls with the same 2 strings are
not that usefull. This also caused about 600'000 calls to
get_target_dir, we are now down to 60'000 calls form this function to
get_target_dir.
Replace several checks against GCC_MINGW or (GCC_MINGW, GCC_CYGWIN) with
is_windows_compiler instead, so that clang and other gcc-like compilers
using MinGW work appropriately with vs_module_defs, c_winlibs, and
cpp_winlibs.
Fixes#4434.
It is a common idiom to look for a function or a specific type or
a header in various locations/libraries, and it can be confusing to
see the (seemingly) identical compiler check being done multiple
times.
Now we print the dependencies being used when a compiler check is run
Before:
Checking for function "fbGetDisplay": NO
Checking for type "GLeglImageOES": YES
Checking for function "asinh": YES
After:
Checking for function "fbGetDisplay" with dependency egl: NO
Checking for type "GLeglImageOES" with dependencies glesv2, gl: YES
Checking for function "asinh" with dependency -lm: YES
If a subproject is not required and fails during its configuration, the
parent project continues, but should not include any target or state set
by the failed subproject. This fix ninja still trying to build targets
generated by subprojects before they fail in their configuration.
The 'build' object is now per-interpreter instead of being global. Once
a subproject interpreter succeed, values from its 'build' object are
merged back into its parent 'build' object.
This allows using the imperfect profiles generated by multithreaded
programs. Without the argument, GCC fails to load them.
Clang just ignores the argument AFAICT.

Replace '\\' with \\\\ in config values args. Otherwise shlex will
helpfully remove path separators on windows, resulting in values like:
`-Ic:mydataishere`
fixup! dependencies/base: Replace windows path separators with /
For PE/COFF it is not possible to allow undefined symbols, so do not
try to use the option to do so.
While gcc ld silently ignores it, this is not the case for the llvm
linker.
Fix#4415
When dependency(), find_library(), find_program(), or
python.find_installation() return a not-found object and disabler is
true, they return a Disabler object instead.
Remove the code responsible for implicitly compressing manpages as .gz
files. It has been established that manpage compression is a distro
packager's task, with existing distros already having their own
implementations of compression.
Fixes#4330
If the directory exists we early return or raise exception in resolve()
method. It was already like that even before the recent refactoring of
the code.
It is safer like that anyway, we don't want a project reconfigure to
silently pull new code. Updating subprojects should be an explicit
action of the user. For example gst-build has a 'git-update' script that
does that. In the future we could add a 'meson subprojects update'
command.
It is sometimes important to be able to build projects offline, in that
case subproject tarballs and patches could be shipped directly within
the project's repository.
- Use CongifParser instead of parsing ourself, this will give more
flexibility in the future.
- Always read the .wrap file first, because if it contains the
'directory' key we should use that value instead of packagename for
the path where do download/lookup for the subproject.
- If we download the subproject (git/submodule/tarball/etc) we should
still check it contains a meson.build file.
* Don't try to import empty-string custom target include dirs
* Import current directory if custom target dir is empty
This restores the previous behavior and fixes test failures caused by
the previous commit.
* This helps with reproducibility on macOS in the same way
`$ORIGIN` improves reproducibility on Linux-like systems.
* This makes the build-tree more resilient to users injecting
rpaths via `LDFLAGS`. Currently Meson on macOS crashes when
a build-tree rpath and a user-provided `-Wl,-rpath` in
LDFLAGS collide, leading to `install_name_tool` failures.
While this still does not solve the root cause, it makes
the occurrence much less likely, as users will generally
pass absolute `-Wl,-rpath` arguments into Meson.
Occasionally Darwin libraries can be .so rather than .dylib e.g. tensorflow_cc.so
tensorflow_cc is a c++ API for Tensorflow (https://github.com/FloopCZ/tensorflow_cc)
which was primarily written for Linux but is also compilable on Darwin. Possibly
through laziness, possibly just to have consistent filenames, the developers did not
opt to change the suffix from the Linux default when this is compiled on Darwin.
Also, the Darwin linker will find libraries with a .so suffix if they are
in its path. find_library() needs to match the linker behaviour.
