This is required to make the various keys in the [user options] section
work the same as they do in the meson_options.txt file, where we don't
have any rules about case sensitivity.
There is some risk here. Someone may be relying on this lower by default
behavior, and this could break their machine files.
Fixes#7731
Instead of the default ones, this is especially important when cross
compiling or when using compilers that aren't compatible with the
default ones.
squash! dependencies/hdf5: Use the actual system compilers
Those function are common source of issue when used in a subproject because they
point to the parent project root which is rarely what is expected and is a
violation of subproject isolation.
* Add preliminary support for the CompCert C Compiler
The intention is to use this with the picolibc, so some GCC flags are
automatically filtered. Since CompCert uses GCC is for linking, those
GCC-linker flags which are used by picolibc, are automatically prefixed
with '-WUl', so that they're passed to GCC.

add CompCert to meson (does not fully work, yet)
* remove unused import and s/cls/self/
fixes the two obvious LGTM warnings
* CompCert: Do not ignore unsupported GCC flags
Some are safe to ignore, however, as per
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/7674, they should not be
ignored by meson itself. Instead the meson.build should take care to
select only those which are actually supported by the compiler.
* remove unused variable
* Only add arguments once.
* Apply suggestions from code review
Co-authored-by: Dylan Baker <dylan@pnwbakers.com>
* Remove erroneous ' ' from '-o {}'.format()
As noticed by @dcbaker
* added release note snippet for compcert
* properly split parameters
As suggested by @dcbaker, these parameters should be properly split into multiple strings.
Co-authored-by: Dylan Baker <dylan@pnwbakers.com>
* Update add_compcert_compiler.md
Added a sentence about the state of the implementation (experimental); use proper markdown
* properly separate arguments

Add the ids of any target that needs to be rebuilt before running the
tests as computed by the backend, to the introspection data for tests and benchmarks.
This also includes anything that appears on the test's command line.
Without this information, IDEs must update the entire build before running
any test. They can now instead selectively build the test executable
itself and anything that is needed to run it.

A common pattern in Qt5 applications is to embed translations in the
executable using the qresource system. In this case, the list of
translation files is already available in the .qrc file and there's no
good reason to duplicate this info in meson.build.
Let compile_translations optionally take a qrc input, in which case it
will go straight to generating the relevant translations and
rcc-generated .cpp, and directly return the thing users actually care
about -- the .cpp for linking.
- Exceptions raised during subproject setup were ignored.
- Allow c_stdlib in native file, was already half supported.
- Eliminate usage of subproject variable name by overriding
'<lang>_stdlib' dependency name.
This is like the project options, but for meson builtin options.
The only real differences here have to do with the differences between
meson builtin options and project options. Some meson options can be set
on a per-machine basis (build.pkg_config_path vs pkg_config_path) others
can be set on a per-subproject basis, but should inherit the parent
setting.
This allows adding a `[project options]` section to a cross or native file
that contains the options defined for a project in it's meson_option.txt
file.
We have experimented with the module for about a year in a qemu
branch (https://wiki.qemu.org/Features/Meson), and we would like to
start moving the build system to meson. For that, keyval should have
the stability guarantees.

We don't need the legacy variable name system as for dependency()
fallbacks because meson.override_find_program() is largely used already,
so we can just rely on it.
Machine files already supports `+` operator as an implementation detail,
since it's using eval(). Now make it an officially supported feature and
add a way to define constants that are used while evaluating an entry
value.
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
The implementation of this function has changed enough that the name
doesn't really reflect what it actually does. It basically returns true
unless you're cross compiling, need and exe_wrapper, and don't have one.
The original function remains but is marked as deprecated.
This makes one small change the meson source language, which is that it
defines that can_run_host_binaries will return true in build == host
compilation, which was the behavior that already existed. Previously
this was undefined in build == host compilation.
The system tool is always the wrong thing to use and cause hard to debug
issues when trying to link system libraries with cross built binaries.
The ExternalDependency base class already had a method to deal with
this, used by PkgConfigDependency and QtBaseDependency, so it should
make things more consistent.
Discussions in #6524 have shown that there are various possible uses of the
kconfig module and even disagreements in the exact file format between
Python-based kconfiglib and the tools in Linux. Instead of trying to
reconcile them, just rename the module to something less suggestive and
leave any policy to meson.build files.
In the future it may be possible to add some kind of parsing through
keyword arguments such as bool_true, quoted_strings, etc. and possibly
creation of key-value lists too. For now, configuration_data objects
provide an easy way to access quoted strings. Note that Kconfig stores
false as "absent" so it was already necessary to write "x.has_key('abc')"
rather than the more compact "x['abc']". Therefore, having to use
configuration_data does not make things much more verbose.
Gtest can output junit results with a command line switch. We can parse
this to get more detailed results than the returncode, and put those in
our own Junit output. We basically just throw away the top level
'testsuites' object, then fixup the names of the tests, and shove that
into our junit.
- ExternalProgramHolder has path() method while CustomTargetHolder and
BuildTargetHolder have full_path().
- The returned ExternalProgramHolder's path() method was broken, because
build.Executable object has no get_path() method, it needs the
backend.
- find_program('overridden_prog', version : '>=1.0') was broken because
it needs to execute the exe that is not yet built. Now assume the
program has the (sub)project version.
- If the version check fails, interpreter uses
ExternalProgramHolder.get_name() for the error message but
build.Executable does not implement get_name() method.
JUnit is pretty ubiquitous, lots of services and results viewers
understand it, in particular gitlab and jenkins know how to consume
JUnit xml. This means projects using CI services can have their test
results consumed automatically.
Fixes: #6972
It can happen that a server is temporaly down, tarballs often have
many mirrors available so we should be able to add at least one fallback
mirror in wrap files.
PR #6363 made it so our interpretation of env vars no longer clashed
with Autoconf's: if both Meson and Autoconf would read and env var, both
would do the same things with the value they read.
However, there were still cases that autoconf would read an env var when
meson wouldn't:
- Autoconf would use `CC` in cross builds too
- Autoconf would use `CC_FOR_BUILD` in native builds too.
There's no reason Meson can't also do this--if native cross files
overwrite rather than replace env vars, cross files can also overwrite
rather than replace env vars.
Because variables like `CC` are so ubiquitous, and because ignoring them
in cross builds just makes those builds liable to break (and things more
complicated in general), we bring Meson's behavior in line with
Autoconf's.
Similar to meson.override_find_program() but overrides the result of the
dependency() function.
Also ensure that dependency() always returns the same result when
looking for the same dependency, this fixes cases where parts of the
project could be using a system library and other parts use the library
provided by a subproject.
As any child of BuildTargetHolder might need the name of the object,
provides a method to get object name.
This is useful in gst-build to display the plugin name and not
the filename.
Emscripten does have a stand alone linker, wasm-ld. This patch adds the
linker, adds detection for the linker, and removes the IsLinkerMixin for
emscripten. This is a little more correct, and makes the code a lot
cleaner and more robust.
Emscripten has pthread support (as well as C++ threads), but we don't
currently implement them. This fixes that by adding the necessary code.
The one thing I'm not sure about is setting the pool size. The docs
suggest that you really want to do this to ensure that your code works
correctly, but the number should really be configurable, not sure how to
set that.
Fixes#6684
This adds a warnings counter for subprojects that passed. This is to
encourage developpers to check warnings in the logs and hopefully fix
them. Otherwise they could be hidden in hundreds lines of logs.
This also print the error message for subprojects that did not pass. The
error message is often enough to fix the issue (e.g. missing
dependency) and it's easier than searching in the logs why a subproject
failed.
This is more correct, and forces the target(s) to be rebuilt if the
PDB files are missing. Increases the minimum required Ninja to 1.7,
which is available in Ubuntu 16.04 under backports.
We can't do the same for import libraries, because it is impossible
for us to know at configure time whether or not an import library will
be generated for a given DLL.
This allows users to disable writing out the inbuilt variables to
the pkg-config file as they might actualy not be required.
One reason to have this is for architecture-independent pkg-config
files in projects which also have architecture-dependent outputs.
For example : https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/weston/issues/269Fixes#4011
This is a significant speed-up on Windows because terminals are
slow to print things out.
Speed-up in gst-build on Windows:
```
meson install:
before: 5.1 seconds
after: 4.0 seconds
```
This improves the common case of a simple meson.build which doesn't
contain any 'native: true' targets to not require a native compiler when
cross-compiling, without needing any changes in the meson.build.

Do it the right way around!
