## Deprecation warning in pkg-config generator |
|
|
|
All libraries passed to the `libraries` keyword argument of the `generate()` |
|
method used to be associated with that generated pkg-config file. That means |
|
that any subsequent call to `generate()` where those libraries appear would add |
|
the filebase of the `generate()` that first contained them into `Requires:` or |
|
`Requires.private:` field instead of adding an `-l` to `Libs:` or `Libs.private:`. |
|
|
|
This behaviour is now deprecated. The library that should be associated with |
|
the generated pkg-config file should be passed as first positional argument |
|
instead of in the `libraries` keyword argument. The previous behaviour is |
|
maintained but prints a deprecation warning and support for this will be removed |
|
in a future Meson release. If you can not create the needed pkg-config file |
|
without this warning, please file an issue with as much details as possible |
|
about the situation. |
|
|
|
For example this sample will write `Requires: liba` into `libb.pc` but print a |
|
deprecation warning: |
|
```meson |
|
liba = library(...) |
|
pkg.generate(libraries : liba) |
|
|
|
libb = library(...) |
|
pkg.generate(libraries : [liba, libb]) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
It can be fixed by passing `liba` as first positional argument:: |
|
```meson |
|
liba = library(...) |
|
pkg.generate(liba) |
|
|
|
libb = library(...) |
|
pkg.generate(libb, libraries : [liba]) |
|
```
