2020-11-21Handle cmake dependencies which require a specified versionJason Ekstrand1-0/+5
Some CMake packages fail to find at all if no version is specified. This commit adds a cmake_version parameter to dependency() to allow you to specify the requested version.

2020-11-05rust: implement support for --editionDylan Baker1-0/+5
Using the std option, so now `rust_std=..` will work. I've chosen to use "std" even though rust calls these "editions", as meson refers to language versions as "standards", which makes meson feel more uniform, and be less surprising. Fixes: #5100

2020-10-13Add wrap mode to disable auto promoteXavier Claessens1-1/+3
2020-10-13Merge wraps from subprojects into wraps from main projectXavier Claessens1-0/+11
wraps from subprojects are now merged into the list of wraps from main project, so they can be used to download dependencies of dependencies instead of having to promote wraps manually. If multiple projects provides the same wrap file, the first one to be configured wins. This also fix usage of sub-subproject that don't have wrap files. We can now configure B when its source tree is at `subprojects/A/subprojects/B/`. This has the implication that we cannot assume that subproject "foo" is at `self.subproject_dir / 'foo'` any more.

cmake: Cross compilation support
2020-10-13mtest: Allow filtering tests by subprojectNirbheek Chauhan1-0/+18
You could always specify a list of tests to run by passing the names as arguments to `meson test`. If there were multiple tests with that name (in the same project or different subprojects), all of them would be run. Now you can: 1. Run all tests with the specified name from a specific subproject: `meson test subprojname:testname` 1. Run all tests defined in a specific subproject: `meson test subprojectname:` Also forbid ':' in test names. We already forbid this elsewhere, so should not be a big deal.

2020-10-08dependency: support boolean argument "allow_fallback"Paolo Bonzini1-0/+8
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.

2020-10-05machinefiles: Allow keys to be stored case insensitiveDylan Baker1-0/+6
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
2020-10-01deprecated get_configtool_variable and get_pkgconfig_variableDylan Baker1-0/+4
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.
2020-09-29dependencies/curses: Add a system dependencyDylan Baker1-2/+2
That calls find_library and has_header in conjunction to look for curses implementations that are baked into the system without any other find method.
2020-09-29dependencies/curses: Add support for using the ncurses config toolsDylan Baker1-0/+4
These are mostly duplicated with pkg-config, but maybe someone has one but not another, and they're easy to turn on with the ConfigToolDependency.

2020-09-23Deprecate meson.build_root() and meson.source_root()Xavier Claessens1-0/+5
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.
2020-09-15Add support for the CompCert C CompilerSebastian Meyer1-0/+3
* 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 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. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2020-08-25qt module: add qresource support to compile_translationsEli Schwartz1-0/+19
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.

2020-08-01Allow setting built-in options from cross/native filesDylan Baker1-1/+16
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.
2020-07-30Allow setting project options from cross or native filesDylan Baker1-0/+37
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.

2020-07-01find_program: Fallback if a wrap file provide the program nameXavier Claessens1-0/+5
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.
