== Link tests can use sources for a different compiler == Usually, the `links` method of the compiler object uses a single program invocation to do both compilation and linking. Starting with this version, whenever the argument to `links` is a file, Meson will check if the file suffix matches the compiler object's language. If they do not match, as in the following case: ``` cxx = meson.get_compiler('cpp') cxx.links(files('test.c')) ``` then Meson will separate compilation and linking. In the above example `test.c` will be compiled with a C compiler and the resulting object file will be linked with a C++ compiler. This makes it possible to detect misconfigurations of the compilation environment, for example when the C++ runtime is not compatible with the one expected by the C compiler. For this reason, passing file arguments with an unrecognized suffix to `links` will cause a warning.
