Using future annotations, type annotations become strings at runtime and
don't impact performance. This is not possible to do with T.cast though,
because it is a function argument instead of an annotation.
Quote the type argument everywhere in order to have the same effect as
future annotations. This also allows linters to better detect in some
cases that a given import is typing-only.
This has never worked for built/found programs, only for script files.
In commit 2fabd4c7dc scripts learned an
attribute stating which subproject they came from. In commit
3990754bf5 dist scripts learned to run
even from a subproject, and relied on that attribute to know when, in
fact, they came from a subproject.
Unfortunately the original attribute was only set in one half of an
if/else, and the other half returned early with only part of the work
done.
Fixes#9964
In commit c239ce31f5 support was added to
these functions to accept various non-string types.
Despite the commit/PR documenting that only add_install_script is
permitted to accept built files, the actual check parameter was set, for
all three, to "True" (so the function was never invoked with False at
all). This meant that actually attempting to use the allowed types would
fail at postconf or dist, with python tracebacks in the former case and
"Failed to run dist script" in the latter case.
This was partially ameliorated in commit
6c5bfd4c24 which added typed_pos_args, but
unfortunately those typed_pos_args were all over the place.
For postconf:
- They banned external programs as additional args (which should be allowed)
- They banned built executables (good)
- They allowed custom targets as additional args (bad)
For dist:
- they allowed external programs (good)
- they allowed built executables, but only as the first argument (bad, also ???)
- they allowed custom targets, but only as additional arguments (bad, also ???)
Fix this all to only allow the same argument types for both the script
argument and the script-args arguments. That type is known at configure
time and restricted to source files, configured files, and found
programs.
In commit 2c0eaf5c4f support was added for
install scripts to accept found programs, built executables, or custom targets.
In commit c239ce31f5, this was extended to
dist and postconf scripts too (although it was documented that those
should not accept targets that are built by ninja).
Despite the commit/PR claiming that all of these should always accept
files and configured files, this was only true for arguments other than
the first, until commit f808c955ea.
In amongst all this, FeatureNew checks were never registered for the
first argument, only for additional arguments, until late in the game
with the addition of FeatureNew checks for File objects.
Fix this in part by moving the 3 different File checks into one, inside the
function that processes the first script, and make that function check
for FeatureNew on anything else too.
Calling interpreter implementation methods is just a bad idea, apart
from the extra type checking that goes into it, we need to pass more
arguments than we need to calling the impl method.
Without this patch, the name of the RunTarget is passed to the
install script; for the enclosed test, meson setup (incorrectly)
succeeds, but installation fails.
Another commit in my quest to rid InterpreterBase from all higher
level object processing logic.
Additionally, there is a a logic change here, since `str.join` now
uses varargs and can now accept more than one argument (and supports
list flattening).
This really is more of a struct than a dict, as the types are disjoint
and they are internally handled, (ie, not from user input). This cleans
some things up, in addition I spotted a bug in the ModuleState where the
dict with the version and license is passed to a field that expects just
the version string.
Currently, EnvironmentVariablesObject is a strange
holder-that's-not-a-holder. This has implicaitons for things that expect
to get an EnvironmentVariables object, as we can't automatically
unholder it, and instead have to to manually do so. Now we can
automatically unholder it, which makes everything much nicer.
It should build the fallback subprject with default_library=static and
override the dependency for both static=True and static kwarg not given.
Fixes: #8050.
