Because we were iterating over all generated sources of a target in one
go, we weren't adding the correct header_deps for generated source
compiles. We need to aggregate the header_deps first before generating
source compile targets for generated source files.
In autotools POTFILES is generated at configure time from POTFILES.in,
but Meson only looks for a po/POTFILES in the source directory, which
is awkward when trying to maintain both build systems in parallel.
Instead just use POTFILES.in as fallback if it exists but POTFILES
does not. Also print an error if neither exists.
Fixes#818
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.
/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))
