D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
The implementation of this function has changed enough that the name
doesn't really reflect what it actually does. It basically returns true
unless you're cross compiling, need and exe_wrapper, and don't have one.
The original function remains but is marked as deprecated.
This makes one small change the meson source language, which is that it
defines that can_run_host_binaries will return true in build == host
compilation, which was the behavior that already existed. Previously
this was undefined in build == host compilation.
The system tool is always the wrong thing to use and cause hard to debug
issues when trying to link system libraries with cross built binaries.
The ExternalDependency base class already had a method to deal with
this, used by PkgConfigDependency and QtBaseDependency, so it should
make things more consistent.
Discussions in #6524 have shown that there are various possible uses of the
kconfig module and even disagreements in the exact file format between
Python-based kconfiglib and the tools in Linux. Instead of trying to
reconcile them, just rename the module to something less suggestive and
leave any policy to meson.build files.
In the future it may be possible to add some kind of parsing through
keyword arguments such as bool_true, quoted_strings, etc. and possibly
creation of key-value lists too. For now, configuration_data objects
provide an easy way to access quoted strings. Note that Kconfig stores
false as "absent" so it was already necessary to write "x.has_key('abc')"
rather than the more compact "x['abc']". Therefore, having to use
configuration_data does not make things much more verbose.
Gtest can output junit results with a command line switch. We can parse
this to get more detailed results than the returncode, and put those in
our own Junit output. We basically just throw away the top level
'testsuites' object, then fixup the names of the tests, and shove that
into our junit.
* WIP: Document formal Meson grammar
* Various little fixes [skip ci]
1) Add missing logical_not_expr
2) 'in' and 'not in' are valid relational operators at least for dicts
3) dictionary keys can be expressions, but kwarg names cannot
4) typo logical_end_expression -> logical_and_expression
5) Make jump statements only allowed inside an iteration statement
* Rework EBNF style [skip ci]
As there is no good order for the productions, just go alphabetically.
The EBNF style was changed to match the one the Python lark project
uses, that is colons for productions and terminals enclosed in double
quotes.
* Add missing production for unary operators [skip ci]
* Add production for multiline strings [skip ci]
* Properly define terminal symbols [skip ci]
Depending on the EBNF flavor, regex can be used to describe the terminal
symbols. Lark allows this, and as it was mentioned as a possible user of
this grammar, let's follow its flavor here. Most regexes used are easily
human-readable, and we can always add comments to more complicated ones.
* Small changes to which expressions can be used where [skip ci]
Let the grammar be very general. The type system then has to check, that
the used expression really evaluates to the correct type. Even if we
know today that assignment expressions always evaluate to None (and can
therefore only be used as a toplevel expression in an expression
statement), this needn't be the case forever. So this way, the grammar
stays stable even if such changes were made.
* Rework function argument list production [skip ci]
* Be more verbose for production names [skip ci]
Rename expr -> expression, stmt -> statement, op -> operator, program ->
build_definition. Also adjust some list productions.
* Add paragraph about syntax stability promises [skip ci]
Update the test.json schema, adding the 'stdout' property.
Also amend the test.json schema so the presence of an unexpected
property on the root object causes a validation error.
v2:
Also add 'tools' property to json schema.
Amend the documentation not to use the word 'list' to describe a dict.
Expected stdout lines must match lines from the actual stdout, in the
same order. Lines with match type 're' are regex matched.
v2:
Ignore comment lines in expected_stdout
v3:
Automatically adjust path separators for location in expected output
v4:
Put expected stdout in test.json, rather than a separate file
Adds the `tools` section to `tests.json` to specify requirements
for the tools in the environment. All tests that fail at least
one tool requirements check are skipped.
- ExternalProgramHolder has path() method while CustomTargetHolder and
BuildTargetHolder have full_path().
- The returned ExternalProgramHolder's path() method was broken, because
build.Executable object has no get_path() method, it needs the
backend.
- find_program('overridden_prog', version : '>=1.0') was broken because
it needs to execute the exe that is not yet built. Now assume the
program has the (sub)project version.
- If the version check fails, interpreter uses
ExternalProgramHolder.get_name() for the error message but
build.Executable does not implement get_name() method.
JUnit is pretty ubiquitous, lots of services and results viewers
understand it, in particular gitlab and jenkins know how to consume
JUnit xml. This means projects using CI services can have their test
results consumed automatically.
Fixes: #6972
This does a couple of nice things, one is that editors like vscode can
be configured to use this schema to provide auto completion and error
highlighting if invalid values are added or required values are missing.
It also allows us test that the format of the test matrix work in a unit
test, which I've added. It does require that the python jsonschema
package is installed.
It can happen that a server is temporaly down, tarballs often have
many mirrors available so we should be able to add at least one fallback
mirror in wrap files.
Refine documentation of the default name_prefix, so people don't get the
impression they can write logic which uses 'lib' as the default, when
they should be defaulting to '[]', to let us take care of the
complexities.
Rather than having two separate sections with duplicated information
lets just have one for the common settings, and only document sections
specific to each file in separately
PR #6363 made it so our interpretation of env vars no longer clashed
with Autoconf's: if both Meson and Autoconf would read and env var, both
would do the same things with the value they read.
However, there were still cases that autoconf would read an env var when
meson wouldn't:
- Autoconf would use `CC` in cross builds too
- Autoconf would use `CC_FOR_BUILD` in native builds too.
There's no reason Meson can't also do this--if native cross files
overwrite rather than replace env vars, cross files can also overwrite
rather than replace env vars.
Because variables like `CC` are so ubiquitous, and because ignoring them
in cross builds just makes those builds liable to break (and things more
complicated in general), we bring Meson's behavior in line with
Autoconf's.
