Usage:
pkgconfig.generate(
...
description : 'A library with custom variables.',
variables : ['foo=bar', 'datadir=${prefix}/data']
)
The variables 'prefix', 'libdir' and 'includedir' are reserved, meson will
fail with an error message.
Variables can reference each other with the pkgconfig notation, e.g.
variables : ['datadir=${prefix}/data',
'otherdatadir=${datadir}/other']
meson does not check this for correctness or that the referenced variable
exists, we merely keep the same order as specified.
Although not stricly necessary, it is good to mention $DESTDIR in the
explanation for add_install_script, since it might not be obvious for the
user that it is available.
Also add punctuation to be consistent.
v2:
- fix "witht" typo
- reword $DESTDIR description to say that it is inherited from the environment
- also describe $MESONINTROSPECT
Currently only strings can be passed to the link_depends argument of
executable and *library, which solves many cases, but not every one.
This patch allows generated sources and Files to be passed as well.
On the implementation side, it uses a helper method to keep the more
complex logic separated from the __init__ method. This also requires
that Targets set their link_depends paths as Files, and the backend is
responsible for converting to strings when it wants them.
This adds tests for the following cases:
- Using a file in a subdir
- Using a configure_file as an input
- Using a custom_target as an input
It does not support using a generator as an input, since currently that
would require calling the generator twice, once for the -Wl argument,
and once for the link_depends.
Also updates the docs.
Allow users to specify @CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR@ in generator arguments
to specify the current target source directory.
This is useful when creating protobuf generator objects in sub-directories
because protoc will then generate files in the expected location.
Fixes#1622.
Remove stray semicolon
Update documentation
This adds a depdendncy wrapper for llvm-config based on the wxwidgets
dependency. IT handles libs, version, include dir, and the llvm unique
concept of components. These components are individual pieces of the
LLVM library that may or may not be available depending on the platform.
This allows us to more easily have the documentation in sync with
the source code as people will have to document new features etc
right at the time where they implement it.
