ci: Add Ubuntu Bionic image
2020-04-28Meson Cmake Wrapper unmaintained [skip ci]Brendan Simon1-1/+1
The Meson CMake Wrapper project is currently unmaintained.
2020-04-28tests: Add support for specifying tool requirementsDaniel Mensinger1-0/+10
Adds the `tools` section to `tests.json` to specify requirements for the tools in the environment. All tests that fail at least one tool requirements check are skipped.

2020-04-28find_program: Fixes when the program has been overridden by executableXavier Claessens2-1/+29
- 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.
2020-04-23mtest: Generate a JUnit xml result fileDylan Baker1-0/+4
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

project test junit schema + a few more uses
2020-04-21docs/cross-compilation: Note appropriate values for cpu_family [skip ci]Dylan Baker1-8/+12
Also note that meson doesn't use `el` on the end of the cpu_family to mark endianness, that the endian field needs to be set appropriately.
2020-04-20add introspect --buildsystem-files info [skip ci]Michael1-0/+15
2020-04-17Add a json schema for the test.json used in testsDylan Baker1-2/+10
This does a couple of nice things, one is that editors like vscode can be configured to use this schema to provide auto completion and error highlighting if invalid values are added or required values are missing. It also allows us test that the format of the test matrix work in a unit test, which I've added. It does require that the python jsonschema package is installed.
2020-04-17docs/users: Update freedesktop users to point at gitlab [skip ci]Dylan Baker1-5/+5
Rather than the legacy cgit
2020-04-17docs: The X Test Suite uses meson [skip ci]Dylan Baker1-0/+1
2020-04-14Corrected prefix path [skip ci]Jonas Møller1-1/+1
Using meson version `0.53.2` prefix defaulted to `/usr/local`, not `/usr/local/` (not the trailing slash)
2020-04-13wrap: Add fallback urlsXavier Claessens2-0/+6
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.
2020-04-13Remove alignment syntax not supported by hotdoc. Closes: #6954. [skip ci]Jussi Pakkanen1-5/+5
2020-04-12Merge pull request #6958 from jon-turney/fix-name-prefix-explicit-defaultJussi Pakkanen1-4/+4
Fix library(name_prefix: [])
2020-04-11docs: fix the docs for install_subdir's strip_directory [skip ci]Peter Hutterer1-1/+1
When set to **true** only the last component is used. And throw in two minor grammatical fixes while we're there.
2020-04-11Refine documentation of default name_prefixJon Turney1-4/+4
Refine documentation of the default name_prefix, so people don't get the impression they can write logic which uses 'lib' as the default, when they should be defaulting to '[]', to let us take care of the complexities.
2020-04-11References-tables.md: repair broken tableVanadiae1-1/+1
At https://mesonbuild.com/Reference-tables.html#compiler-and-linker-selection-variables, the table is broken and it seems that the only difference with other well-working tables on this page is the semi-column ":" that are present under Language.
2020-04-08docs: Update Using-with-Visual StudioNirbheek Chauhan1-10/+11
Very out of date instructions. We install `meson.exe` now and you don't need to have `py` in PATH or use `/path/to/meson.py`.

2020-03-29dist: Add --no-tests optionXavier Claessens1-0/+5
It is not always needed to test generated tarballs, for example when they are generated by CI that already does its own testing.

2020-03-28docs: Add a new page with common cross/native file options [skip ci]Dylan Baker3-99/+140
Rather than having two separate sections with duplicated information lets just have one for the common settings, and only document sections specific to each file in separately

2020-03-23Revert "Naturally use env vars a bit more to match Autoconf"Jussi Pakkanen2-13/+12
This reverts commit 097dfc085e6a1bb3c670880134a52dcfca504be7.
2020-03-23Naturally use env vars a bit more to match AutoconfJohn Ericson2-12/+13
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.

2020-03-11coredata: Warn on usage of both -Dbuildtype and -Doptimization/-DdebugNirbheek Chauhan1-0/+1
It may not be obvious to users that these two ways to set build-types override each other and specifying both is redundant, and conflicts are resolved based on whichever is specified later. Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/6742
2020-03-09project_tests: Add the option to the test format to mark the languageDylan Baker1-1/+10
This is needed when mixing D and C code, as it's possible to end up witha combination of linkers and compilres such that C produces pdb files but D does not.
