Windows module

This module provides functionality used to build applications for Windows.

Methods

compile_resources

  windows.compile_resources(...(string | File | CustomTarget | CustomTargetIndex),
                            args: []string,
                            depend_files: [](string | File),
                            depends: [](BuildTarget | CustomTarget)
                            include_directories: [](IncludeDirectories | string)): []CustomTarget

Compiles Windows rc files specified in the positional arguments. Returns a list of CustomTarget objects that you put in the list of sources for the target you want to have the resources in.

Since 0.61.0 CustomTargetIndexs and CustomTargets with more than out output *may be used as positional arguments.

This method has the following keyword arguments:

  • args lists extra arguments to pass to the resource compiler
  • depend_files lists resource files that the resource script depends on (e.g. bitmap, cursor, font, html, icon, message table, binary data or manifest files referenced by the resource script) (since 0.47.0)
  • depends lists target(s) that this target depends on, even though it does not take them as an argument (e.g. as above, but generated) (since 0.47.0)
  • include_directories lists directories to be both searched by the resource compiler for referenced resource files, and added to the preprocessor include search path.

The resource compiler executable used is the first which exists from the following list:

  1. The windres executable given in the [binaries] section of the cross-file
  2. The WINDRES environment variable
  3. The resource compiler which is part of the same toolset as the C or C++ compiler in use.
