It makes no sense to specify both:
- install_dir, which overrides the -Dincludedir= builtin option
- subdir, which suffixes the -Dincludedir= builtin option
We've always silently ignored the subdir in this case, which is really
surprising if someone actually passed it and expected it to do
something. We also confusingly didn't say anything in the documentation
about it.
Document that the options are incompatible, and explicitly check to see
if they are both passed -- if so, raise an error message pointing out
that only install_dir should be used.
Fixes#10046
It would be too difficult and probably a layering violation to give an
interpreter handle to the inner guts of every dependency. What we can do
instead is let every dependency track:
- the Feature checks it can produce,
- the version attribute for when it was implemented
while leaving the interpreter in charge of actually emitting them.
We do not want anyone touching this entire directory tree, but due to
the way it was implemented, we only checked if its direct parent was a
subproject violation. This generally worked, unless people tried to add
`subprojects/` as an include directory.
Patch this hole. It now provides the same warning any sandbox violation
does (but is not currently an error, just a "will become an error in the
future").
Because we don't want to pass the Interpreter kwargs into the build
layer. This turned out to be a mega commit, as there's really on elegant
way to make this change in an incremental way. On the nice side, mypy
made this change super easy, as nearly all of the calls to
`CustomTarget` are fully type checked!
It also turns out that we're not handling install_tags in custom_target
correctly, since we're not converting the boolean values into Optional
values!
The utility function that processes this for both 'variables' and
'uninstalled_variables' accepts a kwarg for the name of the argument,
but then hardcodes 'variables' in the warning message. This is
misleading.
In commit 06481666f4 this warning got
moved from build.py to the interpreter. Unfortunately it got added to
the wrong function... it is supposed to be part of custom_target and
even mentions this as the feature_name.
Since then, build_always became a KwargInfo and has the deprecated-since
attribute baked into it. But it didn't have the additional message which
it really should have.
Add that message at the same time we remove it from vcs_tag.
Due to the support for specifying version as files('VERSION'), we need
to internally accept an array, since that is what files() returns.
Before that, we didn't accept arrays, and after that, we don't intend to
accept generic arrays, only arrays as a side effect of files(). So
tighten the typechecking to ensure that that is what we actually get.
Fixes a bug where the subproject version was not validated
when the subproject had already been processed.
The bug would cause inconsistent build results if the subproject was
referenced more than once (diamond) with conflicting version requirements.
Currently there is a try/except around the function that detects and
rejects this, which instead of rejecting it, spawns a warning and
continue.
This warning exists because of 'test cases/vala/9 gir/' which passes a
vala generated output that isn't a return value (!!!) using string
joining with the meson.current_build_dir() function (also !!!) because
we officially document this (!!! for a third time) as the only way to
make a vala shared library generate a typelib with a custom_command from
the automatically generated gir:
https://mesonbuild.com/Vala.html#gobject-introspection-and-language-bindings
In #3061 we converted strings to Files, but only if none of them were
this vala hack. Due to the precise implementation, we also failed to
convert strings to Files if any other error occurred, but since we only
want to ignore errors for generated vala outputs, tighten that check and
specifically call out generated files in the warning.
Fixes#8635
We allow this for the command (the first parameter), but not later
parameters, which is just odd. This also allows us to give better error
messages for the case of overridden programs.
This also cleans up a couple of internal callers of the internal impl
version that don't set the `check` argument, and therefore trigger a
warning about not setting the check argument.
This ensures that there is no warnings when running meson on
test cases/common/22 object extraction.
