* Add a test case for bad de-dup of -framework args
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3800
* pkgconfig: Don't naively de-dup all arguments
Honestly don't know what I was smoking. Of course the `Libs:` field in
a pkg-config file can have arguments other than -l and -L

* pkgconfig module: Fix needlessly aggressive de-dup
On macOS, we set the install_name for built libraries to
@rpath/libfoo.dylib, and when linking to the library, we set the RPATH
to its path in the build directory. This allows all built binaries to
be run as-is from the build directory (uninstalled).
However, on install, we have to strip all the RPATHs because they
point to the build directory, and we change the install_name of all
built libraries to the absolute path to the library. This causes the
install name in binaries to be out of date.
We now change that install name to point to the absolute path to each
built library after installation.

With this, the default workflow on macOS matches what everyone seems
to do, including Autotools and CMake. The next step is providing a way
for build files to override the install_name that is used after
installation for use with, f.ex., private libraries when combined with
the install_rpath: kwarg on targets.
When we link to an external library either with find_library() without
any dirs:, or with dependency(), we should be able to run uninstalled
out of the box without having to set any environment variables or other
shenanigans.
This is especially important on macOS because only the system frameworks
directory is in the default runtime path, and all other frameworks and
libraries need to be found with RPATH or absolute path to the dylib.
This simplifies a lot of code, and centralize "key=value" parsing in a
single place.
Unknown command line options becomes an hard error instead of
merely printing warning message. It has been warning it would become an
hard error for a while now. This has exceptions though, any
unknown option starting with "<lang>_" or "b_" are ignored because they
depend on which languages gets added and which compiler gets selected.
Also any option for unknown subproject are ignored because they depend
on which subproject actually gets built.
Also write more command line parsing tests. "19 bad command line
options" is removed because bad cmd line option became hard error and
it's covered with new tests in "30 command line".
This will copy the file to the build directory without trying to read
it or substitute values into it.
Also do this optimization if the configuration_data() object passed to
the `configuration:` kwarg is empty, and print a warning about it.

Libraries that have been linked with link_whole: are internal
implementation details and should never be exposed to the outside
world in either Libs: or Libs.private:
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3509
This test copies a src tree using umask of 002, then runs the build and
install under umask 027. It ensures that the default install_umask of
022 is still applied to all files and directories in the install tree.
This way they override all other arguments. This matches the order of
link arguments too.
Note that this means -I flags will come in afterwards and not override
anything else, but this is correct since that's how toolchain paths
work normally too -- they are searched last.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3089
The linkers currently do not support ninja compatible output of
dependencies used while linking. Try to guess which files will be used
while linking in python code and generate conservative dependencies to
ensure changes in linked libraries are detected.
This generates dependencies on the best match for static and shared
linking, but this should not be a problem, except for spurious
rebuilding when only one of them changes, which should not be a problem.
Also makes sure to ignore any libraries generated inside the build, to
keep the optimisation working where changes in a shared library only
cause relink if the symbols have changed as well.
Previously pkg-config files generated by the pkgconfig modules for static libraries
with dependencies could only be used in a dependencies with `static: true`.
This was caused by the dependencies only appearing in Libs.private even
if they are needed in the default linking mode. But a user of a
dependency should not have to know if the default linking mode is static
or dynamic; A dependency('somelib') call should always pull in all
needed pieces into the build.
Now for meson build static libraries passed via `libraries` to the generate
method automatically promote dependencies to public.
Sometimes it is needed to run the current compiler with specific options
not to compile a file but rather to obtain additional info. For example,
GCC has several -print-* options to query it about the paths to
different libraries and development files. One use case is to get the
location of development files for GCC plugins, which is not easily
obtainable by other means:
gcc -print-file-name=plugin
For this purpose, it would be convenient if the compiler object returned
by meson.get_compiler(lang) could be used in run_command() directly.
This commit implements it.

This can help future generations avoid mistakes like this:
edb1c66239
To avoid breaking builds, this is currently just an error. After
sufficient time has passed this can hopefully become a hard error,
similarly to the already-existing `permittedKwargs` warnings.
A hard error makes this feature useless in most cases since a static
library usually won't be found for every library, particularly system
libraries like -lm. Instead, warn so the user can provide the static
library if they wish.
This feature will be expanded and made more extensible and more usable
in the future.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/2785
This already reports the location (in a slightly different format), but
using mlog.warning() will make it easier if we want to change the location
format in future.
If a dep is not found on the system and a fallback is specified, we
have two cases:
1. Look for the dependency in a pre-initialized subproject
2. Initialize the subproject and look for the dependency
Both these require version comparing, ensuring the fetched variable
is a dependency, and printing a success message, erroring out, etc.
Now we share the relevant code instead of duplicating it. It already
diverged, so this is a good thing.
As a side-effect, we now log fallback dependencies in the same format
as system dependencies:
Dependency libva found: YES
Dependency libva found: YES (cached)
Dependency glib-2.0 from subproject subprojects/glib found: YES
Dependency glib-2.0 from subproject subprojects/glib found: YES (cached)
I have a tendency to typo things. Humans in general are bad at spotting
spelling mistakes, computers are not. This patches prints the bad
options and provides the generic meson "This will be a hard error
someday" message.
MSVC cannot handle MinGW-esque /c/foo paths, convert them to C:/foo.
We cannot resolve other paths starting with / like /home/foo so leave
them as-is so the user gets an error/warning from the compiler/linker.
These paths are commonly found in pkg-config files generated using
Autotools inside MinGW/MSYS and MinGW/MSYS2 environments.
Currently this is only done for PkgConfigDependency.
This exposes the already existing UserStringArrayOption class through
the meson_options.txt. The intention is to provide a way for projects to
take list/array type arguments and validate that all of the elements in
that array are valid without using complex looping constructrs.
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.
