Add support for passing a description to configuration data
setter methods via a 'description' kwarg. The description
string will be used when meson generates the entire configure
file without a template, autoconf-style.
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.
/FS forces .pdb file writing to be serialized through MSPDBSRV.EXE,
which is supposed to solve concurrency issues (esp. with anti-viruses),
but it doesn't actually always work. It also isn't needed anymore since
we don't use a shared vcXXX.pdb temporary file for pdb writing and use
/Fd to explicitly set a per-target pdb filename instead.
Not serializing the PDB writing will make a large difference on fast
disks when linking multiple libraries and executables simultaneously.
the pkgconfig module automatically specified to install the
pkgconfig file to {libdir}/pkgconfig. Default settings in meson
already include multiarch-directories like x86_64-gnu-linux into
the libdir. pkgconfig usually does not check inside multiarch-dirs
for any pkgconfig-files.
to make this a bit more flexible, this commit introduces the
install_dir attribute for pkgconfig.generate. if it is set, the
default install path will be overridden by the users input
Having support for the '%' operator makes it easier to implement
even/odd version checks, like:
enable_debug = get_option('enable-debug')
if enable_debug == 'auto'
if minor_version % 2 == 0
enable_debug = 'minimum'
else
enable_debug = 'yes'
endif
endif
which would be impossible without resorting to less obvious long-hand
forms like:
a - (b * (a / b))
