pkg-config enables to define variables by using the define-variable
option. This allows some packages to redefine relative paths, so
files can be installed in the same relative paths but under prefix.
Check if the keyword arguments given to dependency are permitted, as is
done with other functions already.
The list of permitted keyword arguments is taken from the documentation.
This avoids hundres of warnings like:
Warning no default label for /var/tmp/instroot.hUbtYJ/path/to/some/binary
$DESTDIR is usually set to a temporary path, in which case the path is
unknown to selinux. For that case we could just skip the restorecon
calls. But sometimes it is used with a path to container. In that
case, most of the time, selinux has no context for that path. But we
can't rule that out somebody added custom context rules for the
container. So let's still call restorecon, but silence the warning.
The install_dir parameter of the libraries can also contain the
prefix path, which creates wrong library paths in the .pc file.
This patch detects if prefix is contained in the library path
and creates a relative path.
Fixes#2469
In CommonMark, there are no backslash escapes in code spans, so only two backslashes in the source document are necessary to produce two backslashes in the output document.
This is enough to fix things.
Note that build_shared_lib doesn't use the implib name for mingw or cygwin
gcc, only msvc, so I'm not quite sure how this is working, I guess we are
using the gcc facility to link directly with a dll...
For dependency() and subproject(), the default_options argument can
override the defaults in the subproject's meson_options.txt, not in
its project() invocation.
Resolves#2612
BOOST_LIBS could become outdated in future versions, which would result
in dependency('boost', modules : [ 'foo' ], required : false) to fail,
although required was set to false. Therefore turn the exception into
log_fail(). If required was set to true, this will still be caught since
is_found remains False.
This also improves logging by printing all invalid module names instead
of only the first one.
f.ex when you don't have the llvm-static package installed, the error
message when generating libs is cryptic and uninformative since we
discard stderr.
Sometimes pkg-config can decide that the libdir is a system library dir
and must not be included in the output because that would mess up the
library search order for pkg-config libraries that must be sourced from
a non-system prefix.
However, when we're doing manual searching, we always want to see the
library directory even if it's the system path, otherwise we can't do
manual searching at all.
Escaping spaces with '\ ' is the only way that works with both
pkg-config and pkgconf, so quote that way and unquote inside Meson.
This should work on all platforms.
Also fix the unit test to do the same.
https://github.com/pkgconf/pkgconf/issues/153
When `static: true` is passed to dependency(), we parse the pkg-config
output and manually search for `-lfoo`, etc in the library paths
gathered from `-Lbar` arguments in the output.
If there are no `-L` arguments in the output, the behaviour is the
same as before. If there are `-L` arguments and we can't find a static
library, we will error out.
We can now specify the library type we want to search for, and whether
we want to prefer static libraries over shared ones or the other way
around. This functionality is not exposed to build files yet.
Deprecated Meson syntax is not supported.
There are features not yet implemented, like completing
build targets and build options; more on this in the comments.
