D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
The system tool is always the wrong thing to use and cause hard to debug
issues when trying to link system libraries with cross built binaries.
The ExternalDependency base class already had a method to deal with
this, used by PkgConfigDependency and QtBaseDependency, so it should
make things more consistent.
Since gpgme 1.13.0, pkg-config files are available and this is the
preferred way to detect the dependency. Without this, projects that wish
to generate pkg-config files that Requires.private on gpgme, now have
their custom dependency() fallbacks overridden with an incorrect
configtool dependency.
We say 'different dependencies support different values for this', but
nowhere document what values are supported, so the only way to find these
out is to read the source, or guess. Make a start at doing that.
PR #1852 only adds mention of this to the release note.
I think it's useful to have a list of all dependency names which are treated
specifically in Dependency.md, so add 'thread' and 'openmp'.
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.
There are currently entries for cups and pcap; but not LLVM, GnuStep, or
WxWidgets. Instead of having an entry for each of these just have a
single entry for all of them, since the majority of the information is
duplicated between them anyway.
