* get_library_naming: Use templates instead of suffix/prefix pairs
This commit does not change functionality, and merely sets the
groundwork for a more flexibly naming implementation.
* find_library: Fix manual searching on OpenBSD
On OpenBSD, shared libraries are called libfoo.so.X.Y where X is the
major version and Y is the minor version. We were assuming that it's
libfoo.so and not finding shared libraries at all while doing manual
searching, which meant we'd link statically instead.
See: https://www.openbsd.org/faq/ports/specialtopics.html#SharedLibs
Now we use file globbing to do searching, and pick the first one
that's a real file.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3844
* find_library: Fix priority of library search in OpenBSD
Also add unit tests for the library naming function so that it's
absolutely clear what the priority list of naming is.
Testing is done with mocking on Linux to ensure that local testing
is easy
We used to immediately try to use whatever exe_wrapper was defined in
the cross file, but some people generate the cross file once and use
it for several projects, most of which do not even need an exe wrapper
to build.
Now we're a bit more resilient. We quietly fall back to using
non-exe-wrapper paths for compiler checks and skip the sanity check.
However, if some code needs the exe wrapper, f.ex., if you run a built
executable using custom_target() or run_target(), we will error out
during setup.
Tests will, of course, continue to error out when you run them if the
exe wrapper was not found. We don't want people's tests to silently
"pass" (aka skip) because of a bad CI setup.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3562
This commit also adds a test for the behaviour of exe_wrapper in these
cases, and refactors the unit tests a bit for it.

It's possible that the configuration data object has components added
conditionally, and that sometimes an empty configuration data object
is passed on purpose.
Instead, we do the substitution and also warn if no tokens were found
that could've been substituted.

We now pass the current subproject to every FeatureNew and
FeatureDeprecated call. This requires a bunch of rework to:
1. Ensure that we have access to the subproject in the list of
arguments when used as a decorator (see _get_callee_args).
2. Pass the subproject to .use() when it's called manually.
3. We also can't do feature checks for new features in
meson_options.txt because that's parsed before we know the
meson_version from project()
This is accepted by all other binaries in the cross file. With this
change, we also don't check whether the specified command exists at
configure time, but that's probably a feature anyway.
Fixes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3737
Currently the former will be parsed as [''], while the latter is parsed
as [] in python. This makes for some obnoxious special handling
depending on what the user passes. This is even more obnoxious since for
string type arguments this doesn't require special handling.

Partial fix for #3751
It used to be non-fatal warnings but recent command line refactor made
it fatal. It looks like GNOME continuous would break with this change.
To avoid delaying upcoming 0.47.0 release adoption, let's downgrade this
back to warning for now and reconsider after the release.
This was added accidentally. Includes a test for it.
Also fix a rebase error. The variable was defined incorrectly and was
overwritten with the correct value immediately afterwards.
Our appveyor configuration provides pkg-config when building for
mingw, cygwin, msvc, etc.
Of course, people manually running the tests won't require pkg-config.
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.
Fixes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3038
Fixes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3077
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.
When we link to an external library either with find_library() without
any dirs:, or with dependency(), we should be able to run uninstalled
out of the box without having to set any environment variables or other
shenanigans.
This is especially important on macOS because only the system frameworks
directory is in the default runtime path, and all other frameworks and
libraries need to be found with RPATH or absolute path to the dylib.
Refine #3277
According to what I read on the internet, on OSX, both MH_BUNDLE (module)
and MH_DYLIB (shared library) can be dynamically loaded using dlopen(), but
it is not possible to link against MH_BUNDLE as if they were shared
libraries.
Metion this as an issue in the documentation.
Emitting a warning, and then going on to fail during the build with
mysterious errors in symbolextractor isn't very helpful, so make attempting
this an error on OSX.
Add a test for that.

This simplifies a lot of code, and centralize "key=value" parsing in a
single place.
Unknown command line options becomes an hard error instead of
merely printing warning message. It has been warning it would become an
hard error for a while now. This has exceptions though, any
unknown option starting with "<lang>_" or "b_" are ignored because they
depend on which languages gets added and which compiler gets selected.
Also any option for unknown subproject are ignored because they depend
on which subproject actually gets built.
Also write more command line parsing tests. "19 bad command line
options" is removed because bad cmd line option became hard error and
it's covered with new tests in "30 command line".
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.

When using binutils's windres, we can instruct it to invoke the preprocessor
in such a way that it writes a depfile, so that dependencies on #included
files are automatically tracked.
Not implemented for MSVC tools, so skip testing it in that case.
This new unit test will use the targets in '198 install_mode' and
confirm that every file and directory gets the expected mode, ensuring
that the setting is properly applied at install time.
When using an install_mode in install_subdir(), that should apply to the
files and not to the directory tree.
Otherwise, an install_mode not including the executable bit will make
the tree inaccessible, since directories need it to be traversed.
If the mode needs to be applied to both files and directories, then
install_subdir() is only useful to install files with the executable bit
set, which is not really that useful...
So default to just using the umask for the directories and applying
install_mode to the files only.
This can be reviewed in the future, possibly by adding a separate
install_dir_mode attribute, or perhaps adding an optional fourth field
to FileMode with the mode for directories (this is similar to how RPM
handles specifying mode of directory trees recursively added to the
package.)
For the VS backend, assertRebuiltTarget() asserts the that target is both
recompiled and relinked. This isn't correct for test_rc_depends_files, as
changing the rc script's dependencies only causes the executable to be
relinked, and not to also have it's source recompiled.
assertRebuiltTarget already gets this right for the ninja backend.
Expose depend_files: from the custom_target this creates.
This is the change suggested in #2815, with tests and documentation added.
Fixes#2789 (duplicate #2830)
Instead of using fragile guessing to figure out how to invoke meson,
set the value when meson is run. Also rework how we pass of
meson_script_launcher to regenchecker.py -- it wasn't even being used
With this change, we only need to guess the meson path when running
the tests, and in that case:
1. If MESON_EXE is set in the env, we know how to run meson
for project tests.
2. MESON_EXE is not set, which means we run the configure in-process
for project tests and need to guess what meson to run, so either
- meson.py is found next to run_tests.py, or
- meson, meson.py, or meson.exe is in PATH
Otherwise, you can invoke meson in the following ways:
1. meson is installed, and mesonbuild is available in PYTHONPATH:
- meson, meson.py, meson.exe from PATH
- python3 -m mesonbuild.mesonmain
- python3 /path/to/meson.py
- meson is a shell wrapper to meson.real
2. meson is not installed, and is run from git:
- Absolute path to meson.py
- Relative path to meson.py
- Symlink to meson.py
All these are tested in test_meson_commands.py, except meson.exe since
that involves building the meson msi and installing it.
There are cases when it is useful to wrap the main meson executable with
a script that sets up environment variables, passes --cross-file, etc.
For example, in a Yocto SDK, we need to point to the right meson.cross
so that everything "just works", and we need to alter CC, CXX, etc. In
such cases, it can happen that the "meson" found in the path is actually
a wrapper script that invokes the real meson, which may be in another
location (e.g. "meson.real" or similar).
Currently, in such a situation, meson gets confused because it tries to
invoke itself using the "meson" executable (which points to the wrapper
script) instead of the actual meson (which may be called "meson.real" or
similar). In fact, the wrapper script is not necessarily even Python, so
the whole thing fails.
Fix this by using Python imports to directly find mesonmain.py instead
of trying to detect it heuristically. In addition to fixing the wrapper
issue, this should make the detection logic much more robust.
This will copy the file to the build directory without trying to read
it or substitute values into it.
Also do this optimization if the configuration_data() object passed to
the `configuration:` kwarg is empty, and print a warning about it.

The fallback might be not used not only because it couldn't be found, but
also because something went wrong trying to use it.
