The project() function could have a different value for the backend
option in its default_options kwargs.
Also set backend options, passing them in command line had no effect
previously.
It is nicer to early raise exception if the value from meson_options.txt
is not a string in "[]" format than duplicating the parser code for both
cases.
Also it was checking for duplicated items only in the user_input case,
but we should also check for dups in the default value from
meson_options.txt.
The 'Platform' envvar may not be set on Visual Studio 2008, at least
when using the SDK 7.0 compilers, so check the 'BUILD_PLAT' envvar so
that we do not mis-detect x64 build environments as x86.
This reverts commit 0045d95a16.
<jeandet> nirbheek, it seems 0045d95a16 is
really wrong, I've tested on Ubuntu. While writing this line I was
thinking that you can't have Qt without a working qmake in the path. On
Ubuntu you have that qtchooser stuff which is misleading.
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 allows people to run tests with wine.
Note that you also have to set WINEPATH to point to your custom
prefix(es) if your tests use external dependencies.

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 mistake seems to be a very common hiccup for people trying to use
Meson with MSYS2 on Windows from git or with pip.
msys/python uses POSIX paths with '/' as the root instead of a drive
like `C:/`, and also does not identify the platform as Windows.
This means that configure checks will be wrong, and many build tools
will be unable to parse the paths that are returned by functions in
Python such as shutil.which.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3653
Start the process by traversing the tree and adding the S_IWRITE and
S_IREAD bits to the file's mode (which are also preserved on Windows.)
This fixes windows_proof_rmtree's inability to remove read-only files,
which was uncovered in testing the new `install_mode` feature.
Tested: ./run_tests.py passes on Linux, appveyor CI on Windows passes.
This makes it possible to customize permissions of all installable
targets, such as executable(), libraries, man pages, header files and
custom or generated targets.
This is useful, for instance, to install setuid/setgid binaries, which
was hard to accomplish without access to this attribute.
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.
