It is a usual workflow to fix something and retest to see if it is fixed using a
particular test. When tests start to become numerous, it becomes time consuming
for "meson test" to relink all of them (and in fact rebuild the whole project)
where the user has already specified the tests they want to run, as well as
the tests' dependencies.
Teach meson to be smart and only build what is needed for the test (or suite)
that were specified.
Fixes: #7473
Related: #7830
With the next patch, "meson test" will be using the targets introspection
information. Provide helper functions to share bits of code between
mintro.py and mtest.py.
Some changes:
* Set HOME to /root, since github mounts its own HOME and 'wine'
(because of permissions) and 'dub' (can't find packages) don't
like that.
* Remove the seccomp option, doesn't seem to be needed.
This fix a regression introduced in Meson 0.56.0 when using python 3.5.
Also mention in documentation that using a meson dict does not guarantee
ordering.
Fixes: #8074.
Previously the destdir was ignored completely when using elevated
privileges to install files as pkexec stripped the DESTDIR environment
variable.
As the destdir is not supposed to require any special privileges
anyways, just re-raise the error.
The ninja path is already logged as part of configure. Logging it
again every time when using meson compile is overly verbose and
doesn't add much value for the user.
Otherwise it's not possible to share git subprojects via worktrees
when creating a worktree of a git repository that uses meson
subprojects.
The downside is that the user needs to be careful while adding commits
to each tree's index.
Invoke create_zipapp.py from the root of the repository and it will
create a minimal zipapp with only the mesonbuild module code and a
__main__.py directly copied from meson.py
The meson.py launcher already tracks the desired entry point, and its
only other effect is to add the mesonbuild directory to the path if it
exists, which it won't in the zipapp. So there's no need to duplicate
this into another __main__.py
Allow methods on the compiler object to receive internal dependencies,
as long as they only specify compiler/linker arguments or other
dependencies that satisfy the same requirements.
This is useful if you're using internal dependencies to add special
"-D" flags such as -DNCURSES_WIDECHAR, -D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED or
-DGLIB_STATIC_COMPILATION.
Adds TemporaryDirectoryWinProof which calls windows_proof_rmtree() on
error.
Use instead of hacky error handling (which might shadow other OSError)
in Compiler.compile().
In most places, we now refer to "builddir/" which is a lot less likely
to make people think it is a subcommand which needs to be used
literally.
This is a regression since commit 276d342eba
due to the existence of new docs which were added later on, using the
wrong form.
Fixes a test when using pkgconf instead of pkg-config.
The .pc file in the pkgconfig-gen test requires it and pkgconf seems be
stricter here and fails to validate.
