|
|
| Value | Comment | |
|
| ----- | ------- | |
|
| MESONINTROSPECT | Command to run to run the introspection command, may be of the form `python /path/to/meson introspect`, user is responsible for splitting the path if necessary. | |
|
| MESON_BUILD_ROOT | Absolute path to the build dir | |
|
| MESON_DIST_ROOT | Points to the root of the staging directory, only set when running `dist` scripts | |
|

|
|
|
|
|
## CPU families |
|
|
|
These are returned by the `cpu_family` method of `build_machine`, |
|
`host_machine` and `target_machine`. For cross compilation they are |
|
set in the cross file. |

Any cpu family not listed in the above list is not guaranteed to |
|
remain stable in future releases. |
|
|
|
Those porting from autotools should note that meson does not add |
|
endianness to the name of the cpu_family. For example, autotools |
|
will call little endian PPC64 "ppc64le", meson will not, you must |
|
also check the `.endian()` value of the machine for this information. |
|
|
|
## Operating system names |
|
|
|
These are provided by the `.system()` method call. |

## Language arguments parameter names |
|
|
|
These are the parameter names for passing language specific arguments to your build target. |
|
|
|
| Language | compiler name | linker name | |
|
| ------------- | ------------- | ----------------- | |
|
| C | c_args | c_link_args | |
|
| C++ | cpp_args | cpp_link_args | |
|
| C# | cs_args | cs_link_args | |
|
| D | d_args | d_link_args | |
|
| Fortran | fortran_args | fortran_link_args | |
|
| Java | java_args | java_link_args | |
|
| Objective C | objc_args | objc_link_args | |
|
| Objective C++ | objcpp_args | objcpp_link_args | |

## Compiler and linker flag environment variables |
|
|
|
These environment variables will be used to modify the compiler and |
|
linker flags. |
|
|
|
It is recommended that you **do not use these**. They are provided purely to |
|
for backwards compatibility with other build systems. There are many caveats to |
|
their use, especially when rebuilding the project. It is **highly** recommended |
|
that you use [the command line arguments](#language-arguments-parameters-names) |
|
instead. |
