We already have code to fetch and find binaries specified in a cross
file, so use the same code for exe_wrapper. This allows us to handle
the same corner-cases that were fixed for other cross binaries.

PR #3717 imports ARMCLANG compilers in __init__, but does not add them to
__all__, so they are not re-exported by the compilers package like
everything else.

Paths provided to us by the user or by pkg-config can be (and must be)
assumed to be usable since they might not be usable standalone.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3832
Rather than storing in the cache of search paths the full list returned
from the compiler and having each call ignore the non-existent ones, remove
from the list all non-existent ones before returning to the caching function.
When find_library is used to find dependencies, meson checks all paths for
libraries with all prefixes that could match. This means that when we are
compiling with -m32 on a 64-bit system, meson will find 64-bit libraries and
assumes that they will work. Naturally that is not the case.
The obvious fix is to do a test link against those libraries, but the extra
wrinkle here is that we need to do a "whole link" so as to test the static
libs. A check with gcc+ld on linux shows that unless there are unresolved
symbols from the main.c file, the static library is never checked so we avoid
the error from an incompatible library.
D is not a 'c-like' language, but it can link to C libraries. The same
might be true of Rust in the future and Go when we add support for it.
This contains no functionality changes.
All dependencies were using find_library, has_header, get_define, etc on
self.compiler assuming that it's a compiler that outputs and consumes
C-like libraries. This is not true for D (and in the future, for Rust)
since although they can consume C libraries, they do not use the
C ecosystem.
For such purposes, we now have self.clib_compiler. Nothing uses
self.compiler anymore as a result, and it has been removed.
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install name in binaries to be out of date.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.
Added method concatenate_string_literals to CCompiler. Will concatenate
string literals.
Added keyword argument 'concatenate_string_literals' to Compiler.get_define.
If used will apply concatenate_string_literals to its return value.
Because vala is not listed in clike_langs, is_source(fname) is returning False
for Vala source files. Therefore, extract_all_objects() is completely empty
for Vala programs.
Fixes#791
Otherwise we can end up searching for the same library tens of times,
because pkg-config does not de-duplicate -lfoo args before returning
them.
We use -Wl,--start-group/end-group, so we do not need to worry about
ordering issues in static libraries.
Normally, people would just pass -fembed-bitcode in CFLAGS, but this
conflicts with -Wl,-dead_strip_dylibs and -bundle, so we need it as
an option so that those can be quietly disabled.
This checks not only for existence, but also for usability of the
header, which means it does a full compilation and not just
pre-processing or __has_include.

* mesonbuild/compilers/c.py: Make the `find_library` method more generic by allowing the user to supply the `code` for compiling and linking.
* mesonbuild/compilers/fortran.py: Use the methods inherited from `Compiler` base class where appropriate. Also reuse `CComiler` methods where applicable. This should be sufficient to get various compiler/linker arguments as well as to compile and link Fortran programs. This was tested with `gfortran` compiler, and while the other compilers ought to work for simple cases, their methods are primarily inherited from the base `FortranCompiler` class.
* test cases/fortran/10 find library/gzip.f90: Fortran module with some basic Fortran wrapper interfaces to `gzopen`, `gzwrite`, and `gzclose` C `zlib` functions.
* test cases/fortran/10 find library/main.f90: Fortran program using the `gzip` Fortran interface module to write some data to a gzip file.
* test cases/fortran/10 find library/meson.build: Meson build file for this test case. This demonstrates the ability to link the Fortran program against an external library.
GCC does not print a warning or error for unknown options if the options
are to disable warnings. Therefore, when checking for options starting
'-Wno-', also check the opposite enabling option. This fixes the case
where e.g. -Wno-implicit-fallthrough is incorrectly reported as supported
by gcc 5.4. To avoid missed warnings when using combinations of flags, such
as in test case "112 has arg", we limit the checking of for the positive
option to where the negative option is checked alone.
This patch exploits the information residing in ltversion to set the
-compatibility_version and -current_version flags that are passed to the
linker on macOS.
GNU LD does not use soname when linking a PE/COFF binary, so it makes no
difference, but it breaks when using the llvm linker (lld), which does
not support the soname flag when building PE/COFF binaries for Windows.
Fix#3179
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.
