Test that add_project_dependencies() can only be used before build targets
have been declared. Also test that one cannot use override_dependency
on a superproject to inject a superproject's build products into the
subproject. This would violate the rule that build products cannot be used
with add_project_dependencies() (similar to e.g. compiler.has_function),
so check that meson detects the situation correctly.
This function can be used to add fundamental dependencies such as glib
to all build products in one fell swoop. This can be useful whenever,
due to a project's coding conventions, it is not really possible to
compile any source file without including the dependency.

+ Extend the parser to recognize the multiline f-strings, which the
documentation already implies will work.
The syntax is like:
```
x = 'hello'
y = 'world'
msg = f'''This is a multiline string.
Sending a message: '@x@ @y@'
'''
```
which produces:
```
This is a multiline string.
Sending a message: 'hello world'
```
+ Added some f-string tests cases to "62 string arithmetic" to exercise
the new behavior.
This allows tracking which subproject it came from at the time of
definition, rather than the time of use. As a result, it is no longer
possible for one subproject which knows that another subproject installs
some data files, to expose those data files via its own
declare_dependency.
There are somewhat common, reasonable and legitimate use cases for a
dependency to provide data files installed to /usr which are used as
command inputs. When getting a dependency from a subproject, however,
the attempt to directly construct an input file from a subproject
results in a sandbox violation. This means not all dependencies can be
wrapped as a subproject.
One example is wayland-protocols XML files which get scanned and used to
produce C source files.
Teach Meson to recognize when a string path is the result of fetching a
dep.get_variable(), and special case this to be exempt from subproject
violations.
A requirement of this is that the file must be installed by
install_data() or install_subdir() because otherwise it is not actually
representative of what a pkg-config dependency would provide.
dep.get_variable() only supports string values for pkg-config and
config-tool, because those interfaces use text communication, and
internal variables (from declare_dependency) operate the same way.
CMake had an oddity, where get_variable doesn't document that it allows
list values but apparently it miiiiiight work? Actually getting that
kind of result would be dangerously inconsistent though. Also, CMake
does not support lists so it's a lie. Strings that are *treated* as
lists with `;` splitting don't count...
We could do two things here:
- raise an error
- treat it as a string and return a string
It's not clear what the use case of get_variable() on a maybe-list is,
and should probably be a hard error. But that's controversial, so
instead we just return the original `;`-delimited string. It is probably
the wrong thing, but users are welcome to cope with that somehow on
their own.
Fixes regression in commit c211fea513. The
original dependency lookup looked for `qmake-{self.name}`, i.e.
`qmake-qt5`, but when porting to config-tool, it got switched to
`qmake-{self.qtname}` i.e. `qmake-Qt6`, which was bogus and never
worked. As a result, if `qmake-qt5` and `qmake` both existed, and the
latter was NOT qt5, it would only try the less preferred name, and then
fail.
We need to define self.name early enough to define the configtool names,
which means we need to set it before running the configtool __init__()
even though configtool/pkgconfig would also set it to the same value.
Mark the tests as passing on two distros that were failing to detect
qmake due to this issue, and were marked for skipping because we assumed
that the CI skipping there was an expected case rather than an old
regression.
The "frameworks/4 qt" test covers Qt 4 and 5. There is already Qt 6 code
in the test but it is incomplete because translations are missing and Qt
6 requires C++17 or later to compile.
Adds a new debug() function that can be used in the meson.build to
log messages to the meson-log.txt that will not be printed to stdout
when configuring the project.
Previously subprojects inherited languages already added by main
project, or any previous subproject. This change to have a list of
compilers per interpreters, which means that if a subproject does not
add 'c' language it won't be able to compile .c files any more, even if
main project added the 'c' language.
This delays processing list of compilers until the interpreter adds the
BuildTarget into its list of targets. That way the interpreter can add
missing languages instead of duplicating that logic into BuildTarget for
the cython case.
In the even that all of the inputs are generated, and they're all
generated into the same folder, and there are no subfolders, we would
fail to correctly handle all of the files after the main file. Let's fix
that.t
Apparently Azure provides 64-bit python2 when we try to test 32-bit, and
that breaks everything on the 32-bit test runner.
I don't understand the environment setup, and that runner is
disappearing soon anyway. Hopefully this shuts up the known breakage.
Perhaps when this test case was originally created, project tests could
not use a matrix of options? This is certainly possible today, so don't
write special unittest handling for this instead.
This adds proper visibility into what gets run and what doesn't. Now we
know which python executables got tested and which got skipped.
This reverts commit 79c6075b56.

PYTHONPATH cannot be reliably determined. The standard use case for
installing python modules with Meson is mixed pure sources (at least
`__init__.py`) and compiled extension_modules or configured files.
Unfortunately that doesn't actually work because python will not load
the same package hierarchy from two different directories, one a source
directory and one a (mandatory) out of tree build directory.
(It kind of can, but you need to do what this test case accidentally
stumbled upon, which is namespace packages. Namespace packages are a
very specific use case and you are NOT SUPPOSED to use them outside that
use case, so people are not going to use them just to circumvent Meson
devenv stuff as that would have negative install-time effects.)
Adding PYTHONPATH anyway will just lead to documentation commitments
which we cannot actually uphold, and confusing issues at time of use
because some imports *will* work... and some will *not*. The end result
will be a half-created tree of modules which just doesn't work together
at all, but because it partially works, users attempting to debug it
will spend time wondering why parts of it do import.
For any case where the automatic devenv would work correctly, it will
also work correctly to use `meson.add_devenv()` a single time, which is
very easy to manually get correct and doesn't provide any significant
value to automate.
In the long run, an uninstalled python package environment will require
"editable installs" support.
Dependencies in the "if_true" keyword argument do not prevent the
sources from being used; in other words, they work just like dependencies
with "disabler: false".
However, this was broken in commit ab0ffc6a2 ("modules/sourceset: Fix
remaining typing issues", 2022-02-23) which changed logic instead of
just fixing typing issues. This was likely an attempt to avoid using
"dependencies.Dependency" after the "dependencies" field was declared,
but it also broke QEMU.

We are supposed to fallback on the fallback when running the vcstagger,
but instead we errored out during configure.
Fixes regression in commit b402817fb6.
Before this, we used shutil.which || relative paths, and in the latter
case if it could not be found we still wrote out that path but it failed
to run in vcstagger. Now, we use find_program under the hood, so it
needs to be run in non-fatal mode, and if it is not found, we simply
keep the original command string. It's a VCS command, so if we magically
end up finding it at runtime because it was installed after running
configure, that is *fine*.
It is often useful to check the found version of a program without
checking whether you can successfully find
`find_program('foo', required: false, version: '>=XXX')`
Due to misuse of argparse in commit 82492f5d76
it was impossible to use both --datadirs and extra args passed directly
to msgfmt at the same time.
I'm not sure anyone actually knows how argparse works, so misusing it is
easy. What is definitely known is that argparse is NOT a POSIX compliant
parser and doesn't behave the way you'd expect a standards based parser
to handle options. Instead it caters to the easy use case, and hopes and
prays you don't need to do anything too complicated "with the wrong kind
of complicated".
Apparently, this particular type of complicated is when you have mixed
option_arguments and operands while simultaneously passing some operands
as nargs after a --.
It totally breaks, and interprets --datadirs, which is supposed to be an
option_argument, as an operand, eats it up as a msgfmt wrapped argument,
and breaks.
But if you don't pass additional arguments with -- then it interprets
--datadirs after operands as an option_argument. This is what we were
doing.
Instead pass option_arguments before all operands (including the ones
specified via `-- ...`). Add test case to pass meaningless datadirs (we
don't actually care if $GETTEXTDATADIRS is set to something that doesn't
contain gettext data).
- Change `scope` kwarg to `public` boolean default to false.
- Change `side` kwarg to `client` and `server` booleans.
- Document returned values
- Aggregate in a single unit test because have lots of small tests
increases CI time.
