In commit caab4d3d, the uid and gid arguments passed to os.chown() by
set_chown() were accidentally swapped, causing files to end up with
incorrect owner/group if the owner and group are not the same.
Also update the documentation to better indicate which argument to
install_mode is which.

Make it easier to understand that this array contains the compiler
command, not arguments to it, and may only have one element.

Rather than having to manually build the locale aware man paths with
`install_data('foo.fr.1', install_dir: join_paths(get_option('mandir'), 'fr', 'man1'), rename: 'foo.1')`
Support doing
`install_man('foo.fr.1', locale: 'fr')`

Useful in case of boolean values to distinguish between a boolean
value having been set in the native/cross file and not having been
provided, which can't be achieved by passing a fallback parameter
to .get_external_property().
|
|
It's a pure subset of `get_external_property`, and has odd behavior in
host == build configurations. `get_external_property` is clear, and uses
the standard `native : bool` syntax to control host vs build properties
|
|
Seems it got forgotten when that was added to warnings() and message().
Fixes: #8414.

run_target() does some variable substitutions since 0.57.0. This is a
new behavior, and undocumented, caused by sharing more code with
custom_target(). More consistency is better, so document it now.
custom_target() was doing variable substitution in the past, because it
shared some code with generator(), but that was undocumented. Some
refactoring in 0.57.0 caused it to not replace @CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR@,
@SOURCE_DIR@, and @BUILD_DIR@ anymore. This patch adds back
@CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR@ and document it. It does not add back @SOURCE_DIR@
because it is duplicate with @SOURCE_ROOT@ that has a better name. Also
do not add back @BUILD_DIR@ which is duplicate of @PRIVATE_DIR@, and
not @BUILD_ROOT@ surprisingly, adding to the confusion.

install_subdir() with a non-existing subdir creates the directory in the
target directory. This seems like an implementation detail but is quite useful
to create new directories for e.g. configuration or plugins in the installed
locations.
git bisect says this started with 8fe816101467e66792251b4f57e0ddddb537764a.
Let's add a test for it and document it to make this behavior official.
Limitation: it can only create at the install_dir location, trying to create
nested subdirectories does not work and indeed creates the wrong directory
structure. That is a bug that should be fixed separately:
install_subdir('blah',
install_dir: get_option('prefix'))
install_subdir('sub/foobar',
install_dir: get_option('prefix'))
install_subdir('foo/baz',
install_dir: get_option('prefix'))
$ tree ../_inst
../_inst
├── baz
├── blah
└── foobar

introduce add_test_setup(exclude suites: ...) keyword argument
|
|
Re-implement it in backend using the same code path as for
custom_target(). This for example handle setting PATH on Windows when
command is an executable.
|
|
|
|
This new keyword argument makes it possible to run specific
test setups only on a subset of the tests. For example, to
mark some tests as slow and avoid running them by default:
add_test_setup('quick', exclude_suites: ['slow'], is_default: true)
add_test_setup('slow')
It will then be possible to run the slow tests with either
`meson test --setup slow` or `meson test --suite slow`.

It is common, at least in GNOME projects, to have scripts that must be
run only in the final destination, to update system icon cache, etc.
Skipping them from Meson ensures we can properly log that they have not
been run instead of relying on such scripts to to it (they don't
always).
|
|
|
|
|
|
It's a bit silly and conveluted to have to call find_program on the
output of configure_file, so let's just allow passing files as the
script name.

aligning along the left is, I think, what most projects want to do.
Aligning along the middle looks subjectively ugly, and objectively
prevents me from further indenting an element, e.g.
Build information:
prefix : /usr
sysconfdir : /etc
conf file : /etc/myprogram.conf

Rust has it's own built in unit test format, which is invoked by
compiling a rust executable with the `--test` flag to rustc. The tests
are then run by simply invoking that binary. They output a custom test
format, which this patch adds parsing support for. This means that we
can report each subtest in the junit we generate correctly, which should
be helpful for orchestration systems like gitlab and jenkins which can
parse junit XML.

"more more" is one place where we don't need more.

Some license identifiers are ambiguous (e.g. "GPL3"). The SPDX license
identifiers avoid this by providing standardized and unique identifiers
(e.g. "GPL-3.0-only" or "GPL-3.0-or-later" for the previous example).
Because SPDX short-form identifiers are also both human- and
machine-readable we should recommend them in the documentation.
More information (advantages, details, etc.) can be found here:

Share common code to extract the `variables` kwarg in
declare_dependency() and pkg.generate().
|

Sometimes, distros want to configure a project so that it does not
use any bundled library. In this case, meson.build might want
to do something like this, where slirp is a combo option
with values auto/system/internal:
slirp = dependency('', required: false)
if get_option('slirp') != 'internal'
slirp = dependency('slirp',
required: get_option('slirp') == 'system')
endif
if not slirp.found()
slirp = subproject('libslirp', ...) .variable('...')
endif
and we cannot use "fallback" because the "system" value should never
look for a subproject.
This worked until 0.54.x, but in 0.55.x this breaks because of the
automatic subproject search. Note that the desired effect here is
backwards compared to the policy of doing an automatic search on
"required: true"; we only want to do the search if "required" is false!
It would be possible to look for the dependency with `required: false`
and issue the error manually, but it's ugly and it may produce an error
message that looks "different" from Meson's.
Instead, with this change it is possible to achieve this effect in an
even simpler way:
slirp = dependency('slirp',
required: get_option('slirp') != 'auto',
allow_fallback: get_option('slirp') == 'system' ? false : ['slirp', 'libslirp_dep'])
The patch also adds support for "allow_fallback: true", which is
simple and enables automatic fallback to a wrap even for non-required
dependencies.
|
|
Automatic fallback to subprojects is complicated and should be
pointed out outside the "fallback" keyword argument. It is also
surprising that fallback to a subproject will not happen if
override_dependency has already been used with the request
dependency. Document all this.
|
|
|
|
It was slightly wrong, and also make it a bullet point for easier
parsing.
|
|
The get_variable method is able to do everything they do and more,
making it generally more useful. Let's tell people to stop using the old
ones.

Deprecate meson.build_root() and meson.source_root()
|
|
Add a note about the portability of using shell constructs in the
custom_target() command.
|
|
|
|
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.
