Special case ThreadDependency by taking compiler's flags and
PkgConfigDependency by adding them in requires(.private) instead. For
other Dependency objects just take their link_args and compile_args.
Closes#2725
Duplicated options in array types have been removed by a previous
commit but someone could be using it.
The previous behaviour has been restored but the existence of
duplicates is now tested, and in that case a `DEPRECATION` message
is shown.
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.
gnome's gtkdoc function does not support content files which are
not strings. However, there are situations where files generated
by other targets might be needed.
Array options can receive duplicated values, which can produce
errors if case those duplicated values make processing some
elements twice when they are expected to be processed only once.
See issue #2762
Adds full_version to class Compiler. If set full_version will be printed
additionally.
Added support for CCompiler and CPPCompiler
Added support for gcc/g++, clang/clang++, icc.
If LLVM is built from a git mirror instead of from SVN it will have
"git-<very short sha>" at the end of the version. We need to remove that
so that version comparison will work correctly.
Fixes: #2786
* mesonbuild/modules/gnome.py (GnomeModule.compile_schemas): Allow the
depend_files kwarg.
* docs/markdown/Gnome-module.md: Add docs for new kwarg (and the only
other one that is permitted).
The example provided for the `get_pkgconfig_variable` when using using the `define_variable` parameter is not the best example, because it is using `prefix` for both. This changes the retrieved variable for `libdir` so the efect of the variable redefinition is more noticeable.
Meson is able to redefine variables when retrieving them from
`pkg-config` dependencies. However, the documentation is missing.
This patch adds documentation for this feature.
