Allow methods on the compiler object to receive internal dependencies,
as long as they only specify compiler/linker arguments or other
dependencies that satisfy the same requirements.
This is useful if you're using internal dependencies to add special
"-D" flags such as -DNCURSES_WIDECHAR, -D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED or
-DGLIB_STATIC_COMPILATION.
Some CMake packages fail to find at all if no version is specified.
This commit adds a cmake_version parameter to dependency() to allow you
to specify the requested version.
When finding the Qt compilation tools (moc, uic, rcc, lrelease), the
version strings contain a trailing newline character. This results in a
stray newline in the meson log:
Detecting Qt5 tools
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/moc found: YES 5.14.2
(/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/moc)
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/uic found: YES 5.14.2
(/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/uic)
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/rcc found: YES 5.14.2
(/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/rcc)
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/lrelease found: YES 5.14.2
(/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/lrelease)
Strip the version to avoid this, resulting in a cleaner log:
Detecting Qt5 tools
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/moc found: YES 5.14.2 (/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/moc)
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/uic found: YES 5.14.2 (/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/uic)
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/rcc found: YES 5.14.2 (/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/rcc)
Program /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/lrelease found: YES 5.14.2 (/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/lrelease)

Instead of trying to cover everything internally
Sometimes, distros want to configure a project so that it does not
use any bundled library. In this case, meson.build might want
to do something like this, where slirp is a combo option
with values auto/system/internal:
slirp = dependency('', required: false)
if get_option('slirp') != 'internal'
slirp = dependency('slirp',
required: get_option('slirp') == 'system')
endif
if not slirp.found()
slirp = subproject('libslirp', ...) .variable('...')
endif
and we cannot use "fallback" because the "system" value should never
look for a subproject.
This worked until 0.54.x, but in 0.55.x this breaks because of the
automatic subproject search. Note that the desired effect here is
backwards compared to the policy of doing an automatic search on
"required: true"; we only want to do the search if "required" is false!
It would be possible to look for the dependency with `required: false`
and issue the error manually, but it's ugly and it may produce an error
message that looks "different" from Meson's.
Instead, with this change it is possible to achieve this effect in an
even simpler way:
slirp = dependency('slirp',
required: get_option('slirp') != 'auto',
allow_fallback: get_option('slirp') == 'system' ? false : ['slirp', 'libslirp_dep'])
The patch also adds support for "allow_fallback: true", which is
simple and enables automatic fallback to a wrap even for non-required
dependencies.
Force_fallback is not an interpreter keyword argument, and there
is no reason to handle it as one since it is not used anywhere
else (and in fact is explicitly ignored by get_dep_identifier).
Use a Python keyword argument instead, which makes the code
simpler.
with msys ncurses-config returns a unix style path (currently, though
it's been fixed upstream), which the compilers don't understand, so we
can't do that. Additionally, while the system search does work, there's
missing include directories that need to be added.
On win32 there is pdcurses, so we detect it first, because python
depends on ncursesw, so if we don't want to use ncursesw, we should make
sure pdcurses detect before ncursesw
has_header returns a tuple of (found: bool, cached: bool), so `if
has_header` will always return true because the tuple is non-empty. We
need to check if the found value is true or not.
Instead of the default ones, this is especially important when cross
compiling or when using compilers that aren't compatible with the
default ones.
squash! dependencies/hdf5: Use the actual system compilers
This catches some very real errors.
The one in scalapack is pretty silly actually, it's failing to figure
out that the exploded list is at least two arguments. However, the code
is actually clearer by not using a list and exploding it, so I've done
that and pylint is happy too.
There was both a straight up bug in the type signature (the return type
is List[Callable[[], Dependency]] not List[Type[Dependency]]), and in
the way the arguments are assembled. Typing is pretty limited in it's
ability to express decorators, so the best mypy can do is check the
return types (I think). I've done what the docs suggest and it's stopped
complaining.
- Exceptions raised during subproject setup were ignored.
- Allow c_stdlib in native file, was already half supported.
- Eliminate usage of subproject variable name by overriding
'<lang>_stdlib' dependency name.
The compilers_detect function is only used in the qt module, which
checks every time before using a specific compiler, if it is found.
e.g.
meson.build:10:6: ERROR: MOC sources specified and couldn't find moc-qt5, please check your qt5 installation
In fact, the current check means we never even hit this error to begin
with, because we previously died on the uninformative error:
meson.build:10:6: ERROR: Program(s) ['moc'] not found or not executable
which doesn't actually tell the user why this matters, and is all around
a waste of time.
Fixes#5582
The `debug` builtin option does not control whether or not the debug
CRT is used. Without this fix, when buildtype=debugoptimized or when
debug=true + b_vscrt=md, we will try to link to the debug libraries
found via cmake while linking with `/release`, which will cause a link
failure.
* Add boost_root support to properties files
This commit implements `boost_root`, `boost_includedir`, and
`boost_librarydir` variable support to native and cross properties
files. The search order is currently environment variables, then
these variables, and finally a platform-dependent search.
* Add preliminary boost_root / boost_includedir tests
Each test contains a fake "version.hpp", as that's how boost detection is
currently being done. We look for this file relative to the root directory,
which probably shouldn't be allowed (it previously was for BOOST_LIBRARYDIR
but not for BOOST_ROOT). It also cannot help with breakage detection in
libraries, however it looks like this wasn't getting tested beforehand.
I've given the two unique version numbers that shouldn't be present in any
stock version of boost (001 and 002).
* Add return type to detect_split_root
* Return empty list when nothing found in BOOST_ROOT, rather than None
* Update boost_root tests
* Create nativefile.ini based on location of run_project_tests.py
* Add fake libraries to ensure boost_librarydir is being used
* Require all search paths for boost to be absolute
* Redo boost search ordering
To better match things like pkg-config, we now look through native/cross files,
then environment variables, then system locations for boost installations.
Path detection does not fall back from one method to the next for properties or
environment variables--if boost_root, boost_librarydir, or boost_includedir is
specified, they must be sufficient to find boost. Likewise for BOOST_ROOT and
friends. pkg-config detection is still optional falling back to system-wide
detection, for Conan.
(Also, fix a typo in test 33's nativefile)
* Correct return type for detect_roots
* Correct boost dependency search order in documentation
* Print debug information for boost library finding, to resolve CI issues
* Handle native/cross file templates in a more consistent way
All tests can now create a `nativefile.ini.in` if they need to use some
parameter that the testing framework knows about but they can't.
* Pass str--rather than PosixPath--to os.path.exists, for Python35
* Look for boost minor versions, rather than boost patch versions in test cases
* Drop fake dylib versions of boost_regex
* Prefer get_env_var to use of os.environ
* Correct error reporting for relative BOOST_ROOT paths
* Bump version this appears in. Also, change "properties file" to "machine file" as that appears to be the more common language.
- vcpkg libraries are not found when given cmake_toolchain_file and vcpkg_target_triplet as cmake_args when looking for the dependency if the first call to cmake has different arguments. The libraries are found if the first call has same arguments or if the CMakeCache.txt is deleted in call_with_fake_build.
Otherwise we can end up finding dependencies from the build machine for
the host machine, which is incorrect. This alters cmake, pkg-config, and
all config-tool based dependencies.
Fixes: #7276
it really doesn't make sense to put this in the ExternalDependency
class. It doesn't rely on any of the state of that class, and it's
generically useful inside meson.
