## Can override find_program |
|
|
|
It is now possible to override the result of `find_program` to point |
|
to a custom program you want. The overriding is global and applies to |
|
every subproject from there on. Here is how you would use it. |
|
|
|
In master project |
|
|
|
```meson |
|
subproject('mydep') |
|
``` |
|
|
|
In the called subproject: |
|
|
|
```meson |
|
prog = find_program('my_custom_script') |
|
meson.override_find_program('mycodegen', prog) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
In master project (or, in fact, any subproject): |
|
|
|
```meson |
|
genprog = find_program('mycodegen') |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Now `genprog` points to the custom script. If the dependency had come |
|
from the system, then it would point to the system version. |
|
|
|
You can also use the return value of `configure_file()` to override |
|
a program in the same way as above: |
|
|
|
```meson |
|
prog_script = configure_file(input : 'script.sh.in', |
|
output : 'script.sh', |
|
configuration : cdata) |
|
meson.override_find_program('mycodegen', prog_script) |
|
```
|
