This commit adds a 'dependencies' keyword to the
gnome.compile_resources() function, which allows your resource blob
to depend on files generated at build-time from custom_target() or
configure_file() targets.
My current use case for this is source data that gets processed with Gettext
translation tools before being compiled into the resource blob.
This feature only works with GLib version 2.48.2 and above. So the
compile_resources() function now detects GLib version and raises an
error if the version of GLib being used is too old.
The compile_resources() test case is now split into two, so that the
existing one can continue to run on systems with old GLib versions (such
as Ubuntu Xenial, which the automated tests on travisci.org use), but
where new enough GLib is available we also test generating gresource
content.
The existing warning about glib-compile-resources is now only printed
if GLib version is older than 2.50.0 because
<https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745754> is fixed in the
2.50.0 release.
Allowing the object tree to be generated.
We need to add options to allow copying the ncesseary sources and
assets so the HTML generator can work with them (everything is
relative so we need to copy them in the build directory).
Until now the documentation was not generated from the user provided
main sgml file but it was using a generated one, which lead to a broken
documentation. Starting using it revealed the other bugs fixed in that
commit.
These paths are now generated similar to
NinjaBackend.generate_single_compile where IncludeDirs create includes
of both the build directory path and the source directory path.
This also fixes a bug with include_directories, where the path string
supplied to the IncludeDirs initializer was used for the search path,
instead of the actual location to which it referred. Often, this was a
'.', and not a really useful path.
The extra arguments are typically used to specified the location of
installed API references that gtk-doc can use to create cross links
for symbols.
Fixes#555
There are use case where one may want to specify --sourcedir option
multiple times to glib-compile-resources, which will look for
resources in every specified directory.
By doing this, we also need to get rid of the manual GResource XML
parsing and we opted to use the glib-compile-resources command with
the --generate-dependencies option. This command will solve the
multiple source_dir case for us.
