Python provides some nifty tools for mocking, without relying on
altering running code. We should use these to simplify the actual run
paths and move the complicated logic into tests.
This replaces all of the Apache blurbs at the start of each file with an
`# SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0` string. It also fixes existing
uses to be consistent in capitalization, and to be placed above any
copyright notices.
This removes nearly 3000 lines of boilerplate from the project (only
python files), which no developer cares to look at.
SPDX is in common use, particularly in the Linux kernel, and is the
recommended format for Meson's own `project(license: )` field
We haven't actually verified that these kwargs are equal to what we had
before, and should probably revert the entire series. But I have
multiple reports in the wild of projects that no longer build because of
`install: [true, false, get_option('foobar')]` which was always
incorrect and always equal to just dropping values all over the floor
and treating it the same as "bool(value) == True".
Special case this particular typed kwarg and allow it with a sternly
worded warning that it was always wrong and should never ever ever be
done.

adb1a360b9 added the feature and also the
usual meson-style warning to users that might be using the feature but
were not targeting a new enough meson version. Well unfortunately the
warning both doesn't actually work (it didn't take different directories
into account) and is also really slow because it creates an O(N^2) loop
for checking this.
Instead, rework this by adding an additional set that stores a tuple
containing the target name and its subdirectory. We only add this tuple
if the target is an executable since it is the only time it will be
relevant. After that, simply check if the name + subdir combination
already exists in the set along with the target being executable. If so,
then we execute FeatureNew which may possibly warn. This is a simply
O(1) lookup which is way faster. Fixes#12404.
Which allow passing arguments specifically to the static or shared
libraries.
For design, this is all handled in the interpreter, by the build layer
the arguments are combined into the existing fields. This limits changes
required in the mid and backend layers
This also moves the repacking into the interpreter, making the build
implementation simpler and removing a layering violation. This also
makes use a defaultdict to remove the need to call `.get()`
Way back in Meson 0.25, support was added to `vala_args` for Files.
Strangely, this was never added to any other language, though it's been
discussed before. For type safety, it makes more sense to handle this in
the interpreter level, and pass only strings into the build IR.
This is accomplished by adding a `depend_files` field to the
`BuildTarget` class (which is not exposed to the user), and adding the
depend files into that field, while converting the arguments to relative
string paths. This ensures both the proper build dependencies happen, as
well as that the arguments are always strings.
When checking target names, meson explictly forbids having multiple
targets with the same name. This is good, but it is strict and it is
impossible to have targets with the same basename and differing suffixes
(e.g. foo and foo.bin) in the same directory. Allow this for executables
by including the suffix (if it exists) in the interal target id. So foo
would be foo@exe and foo.bin would be foo.bin@exe.
This differentiates export_dynamic being explicitly set to False from it
being unset. This allows us to deprecate explicitly setting
export_dynamic to false, but setting implib. This is already the case in
the other direction, if implib is False but export_dynamic is enabled
then we get a hard error.
This also moves the validation up to the Interpreter and out of the
build level.
In commit dd22546bdd the various
typed_pos_args for different BuildTarget functions was refactored into a
common tuple of types.
It overlooked the fact that jar specifically does NOT accept the same
types, and began to allow passing structured_sources in.
The method can be overridden by setting the `method` key in the wrap
file and always defaults to 'meson'. cmake.subproject() is still needed
in case specific cmake options need to be passed.
This also makes it easier to extend to other methods in the future e.g.
cargo.
Rustc does not produce object files we can reuse to build both
libraries. Ideally this should be done with a single target that has
both `--crate-type` arguments instead of having 2 different build rules.
As temporary workaround, build twice and ensure they don't get conflicts
in intermediary files created by rustc by passing target's private
directory as --out-dir.
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/111083.
Allow macro_name to be speficied as a parameter to configure_file().
This allows C macro-style include guards to be added to
configure_file()'s output when a template file is not given. This change
simplifies the creation of configure files that define macros with
dynamic names and want the C-style include guards.
- On Windows, it was not detected if include directory was an absolute
path to source directory, because of the mis of path separators.
- In the edgecase the include directory begins with the exact same
string as the source directory, but is a different directory, it was
falsely reported as an error.
Fixes#12217.
Update builtin function list using the refman
python docs/genrefman.py \
-g vim \
-o data/syntax-highlighting/vim/syntax/
This also drops gettext() and find_library() from the list of builtin
functions that have been deprecated since 2016.
Changes are squashed here because test_vim_syntax_highlighting() would
validate the file against the list of builtin functions that no longer
matches the yaml documentation.

This has no actual effect on the codebase as type checkers (still)
support both and negligible effect on runtime performance since
__future__ annotations ameliorates that. Technically, the bytecode would
be bigger for non function-local annotations, of which we have many
either way.
So if it doesn't really matter, why do a large-scale refactor? Simple:
because people keep wanting to, but it's getting nickle-and-dimed. If
we're going to do this we might as well do it consistently in one shot,
using tooling that guarantees repeatability and correctness.
