For qt we already have all of the necissary checking in place. Now in
the interpreter we have the same, the intrperter does all of the
checking, then passed the arguments to the Generator initializer, which
just assigns the passed values. This is nice, neat, and clean and fixes
the layering violatino between build and interpreter.
When mutable items are stored in an lru cache, changing the returned
items changes the cached items as well. Therefore we want to ensure that
we're not mutating them. Using the ImmutableListProtocol allows mypy to
find mutations and reject them. This doesn't solve the problem of
mutable values inside the values, so you could have to do things like:
```python
ImmutableListProtocol[ImmutableListProtocol[str]]
```
or equally hacky. It can also be used for input types and acts a bit
like C's const:
```python
def foo(arg: ImmutableListProtocol[str]) -> T.List[str]:
arg[1] = 'foo' # works while running, but mypy errors
```
The build level shouldn't be deal with interpreter objects, by the time
they leave the intpreter they should be in the Meson middle layer
representaiton
Dependencies is already a large and complicated package without adding
programs to the list. This also allows us to untangle a bit of spaghetti
that we have.
All changes were created by running
"pyupgrade --py3-only --keep-percent-format"
and committing the results. I have not touched string formatting for
now.
- use set literals
- simplify .format() parameter naming
- remove __future__
- remove default "r" mode for open()
- use OSError rather than compatibility aliases
- remove stray parentheses in function(generator) scopes
Rather than having to manually build the locale aware man paths with
`install_data('foo.fr.1', install_dir: join_paths(get_option('mandir'), 'fr', 'man1'), rename: 'foo.1')`
Support doing
`install_man('foo.fr.1', locale: 'fr')`
By default all subprojects are installed. If --skip-subprojects is given
with no value only the main project is installed. If --skip-subprojects
is given with a value, it should be a coma separated list of subprojects
to skip and all others will be installed.
Fixes: #2550.
Re-implement it in backend using the same code path as for
custom_target(). This for example handle setting PATH on Windows when
command is an executable.
This new keyword argument makes it possible to run specific
test setups only on a subset of the tests. For example, to
mark some tests as slow and avoid running them by default:
add_test_setup('quick', exclude_suites: ['slow'], is_default: true)
add_test_setup('slow')
It will then be possible to run the slow tests with either
`meson test --setup slow` or `meson test --suite slow`.
Add function to Build class to get targets of type BuildTarget
Update xcode backend to call get_build_targets when iterating over targets.
This resolves crash in xcode backend when using custom targets:
AttributeError: ‘CustomTarget’ object has no attribute ‘objects’
On Windows this would fail because of missing DLL:
```
mylib = library(...)
exe = executable(..., link_with: mylib)
meson.add_install_script(exe)
```
The reason is on Windows we cannot rely on rpath to find libraries from
build directory, they are searched in $PATH. We already have all that
mechanism in place for custom_target() using ExecutableSerialisation
class, so reuse it for install/dist/postconf scripts too.
This has bonus side effect to also use exe_wrapper for those scripts.
Fixes: #8187
There are still caveats here. Rust/cargo handles generated sources by
writing out all targets of a single repo into a single output directory,
setting a path to that via a build-time environment variable, and then
include those files via a set of functions and macros. Meson's build
layout is naturally different, and ninja makes working with environment
variables at compile time difficult.
Fixes#8157
we have two functions to do the exact same thing, and they're basically
implemented the same way. Instead, let's just use the BuildTarget one,
as it's more generally available.
Currently InstallDir is part of the interpreter, and is an Interpreter
object, which is then put in the Build object. This is a layering
violation, the interperter should have a Holder for build data. This
patch fixes that.
