After an initial checkout, submodules aren’t initialized and thus trying
to update them fails.
Partially fixes#1679

Sometimes you want to link to a C++ library that exports C API, which
means the linker must link in the C++ stdlib, and we must use a C++
compiler for linking. The same is also applicable for objc/objc++ etc,
so we can keep using clike_langs for the priority order.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1653
Ideally, all dependency objects should support this, but it's a lot of
work and isn't supported by all dependency types (like frameworks and
pkg-config), so for now just enable it for external libraries.
Grammatically, this full stop isn't needed and with file names it has a
potential to be confusing:
Installing /foo/bar/filename.1 to /foo/bar/dirname.
The full stop caused me to do a double-take more than once, so let's drop it.
... based on the compiler object
This addresses issue #1569
Need to be careful about using -isystem with the standard include
dirs (thanks to the unit tests for catching this). It may be
worthwhile trying to detect what the include dirs are.
Other dependencies (GTest) just avoid adding the include dir for those
system includes. Do the same here.
'gtkdoc-scangobj' script was recently ported to Python (it was Perl), and it now requires providing '--type' option to specify the name of the file to store the types in. Without this option, 'gtkdockelper' will exit with error status 2 and will throw a message "gtkdoc-scangobj: error: unrecognized arguments: <typefile>"
We receive these options from the 'argparse' module in a random
order. To ensure the build.ninja file doesn't include random variations
we should sort them before writing them back out.
This detects and allows passing a generated file as a vs_module_def, it
also adds a testcase that tests using configure_file to generate the
.def file.
We were more hesitant to do this earlier because it might have messed
up custom_target command lines, but since we always use a wrapper for
that now, it should be ok to do this.
Add a test in the form of a funky generator script.
configure a detection method, for those types of dependencies that have
more than one means of detection.
The default detection methods are unchanged if 'method' is not
specified, and all dependencies support the method 'auto', which is the
same as not specifying a method.
The dependencies which do support multiple detection methods
additionally support other values, depending on the dependency.
When cross compiling with mingw it's problematic to assume that there is
a binary called windres, and having to set it via an environment
variable seems wrong when there is a handy cross-file for just such a
situation.
This patch allows setting windres in the [binaries] section of the cross
file. If the build is a cross build, then the windows module will check
for windres being set in the cross file before checking the WINDRES
environment variable or looking for a windres binary.
'test cases/common/12 data' and 'test cases/common/66 install subdir' both
try to install something as 'root'. This user doesn't exist on Cygwin.
Perhaps we should automatically convert this to some other user, but it's
not clear which. For real projects, it's possibly better for the meson.build
to explicitly handle this...
'test cases/common/12 data' also tries to install something with GID 0.
There's no guarantee this group exists.
Cygwin executables are still loaded by the Windows PE loader, so PATH needs
to include any extra directories where required DLLs can be found.
Cygwin uses a unix style ':'-separated PATH. os.pathsep is used correctly
on extra_paths in meson_exe.py, but not in mesontest.py
