We can't support generated XML files with custom_target() because the
dependency scanning happens at configure time, but we *can* support
generating them with configure_file().
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1380
The same substitutions and rules as custom_target().
Also generally fix it to actually work when run in a subdir and with
anything other than absolute paths for input and output files.
We now also log a message when configuring files.
Includes tests for all this.
This means replacing @PLAINNAME@ and @BASENAME@ in the outputs. This is
the same feature as generator().
This is only allowed when there is only one input file for obvious
reasons + failing test for this.
Factor it out into a function in mesonlib.py. This will allow us to
reuse it for generators and for configure_file(). The latter doesn't
implement this at all right now.
Also includes unit tests.
We don't need dependencies to work correctly to use the output of
configure_file in the dependencies: kwarg.
This allows GNOME Recipes to built without the latest glib git.
Ever since we changed how we do library searching, the full path to the
library has not been available under `.fullpath`. This has been broken
for at least a year...
And actually test that prog.path() works. The earlier test was just
running the command without checking if it succeeded.
Also make everything use prog.get_command() or get_path() instead of
accessing the internal member prog.fullpath directly.
We also need to check whether the program found in PATH can be executed
directly by Windows or if we need to figure out what the interpreter is
and add it to the list.
Also add `msc` to the list of extensions that can be executed natively
Includes a project test and a unit test for this and all expected
behaviours on Windows.
Without this, we can output a mixture of '/' and '\' on platforms where
os.path.sep is '\' and prefix or outdir uses '/'. Let's always return
the path in the format of the platform we're running on.
This is needed to make the test_install_introspection() unittest work
properly on Windows.
Otherwise if the list of sources changes on reconfigure after building,
the static library will contain both the old and new objects.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1355
Without this, files() in the arguments give an error because it's a list
of mesonlib.File objects:
Array as argument 1 contains a non-string.
It also breaks in nested lists. Includes a test for this.
- Hanlde correctly a multi command string in evironment variable, e.g.:
CC="ccache gcc" meson
- Handle correctly a list for the cross-file option, e.g:
[binaries]
c = ['ccache', '/usr/local/bin/mips-linuc-gcc']
This commit fixes#1392.
os.path.commonpath (and our implementation of it) both always return the
path using the native operating system path separator, so we can't just
directly compare it since the prefix could be specified in '/', and
commonpath would use '\' on Windows.
Also add a unit test for this.
A user may want to add libraries to link with in the (c|cpp)_link_args
property of the cross-compile file.
Those libraries should be at the end of the command line due to reference
resolution mechanism of the compiler.
By moving the cross_args after LINK_ARGS we are sure that specific
cross-compilation libraries are at the end of the command line.
See [github PR #1363](https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/1363) to
have the context of this change.
It's only useful to use those when you have to override include dirs
or library paths by appending them from various sources according to
the priority order, or if the compiler args need to be converted from
Unix/GCC-style to native (MSVC, for instance) style.
Sanity checks match neither of these.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1351
To reproduce, one could write:
foo = files('foo.c')
foo[0].path()
and get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
[snip]
File "/home/trhd/Projects/meson/mesonbuild/interpreterbase.py", line 398, in method_call
raise InvalidArguments('Variable "%s" is not callable.' % object_name)
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'object_name' referenced before assignment
Fix this by handling file objects separately.
os.path.commonpath was added in Python 3.5, so just write our own for
now. pathlib was added in Python 3.4, so this should be ok. We need to
use that instead of doing str.split() etc because Windows path handling
has a lot of exceptions and pathlib handles all that for us.
Also adds a unit test for this.
