2020-02-26summary: Add list_sep keyword argumentXavier Claessens2-1/+7
This allows having lists on a single line instead of having each value aligned on a new line.

mesonbuild/nirbheek/implement-symbolextractor-windows Implement symbolextractor on windows + some cleanups/fixes
2020-02-23Update Custom-build-targets.mdadamjalkemo1-2/+2
Use the declared variables infile and outfile
2020-02-22ninjabackend: List PDBs in output list for targetsNirbheek Chauhan1-0/+10
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.
2020-02-21linkers: Update the linker names to be more consistentDylan Baker1-14/+15
This makes two basic changes, 1 it moves the name of the linker into the linker class, this should reduce the number of errors and typos, and ensure that a linker always has one name. This then renames the linkers to have more consistent names. Posix/gnu linkers are called ld.<name>: ld.gold, ld.lld, ld.solaris. Apple linkers are renamed ld64.
2020-02-21docs: Fix reference table for linker namesDylan Baker1-10/+20
These are pretty much all over the place because I never intended them to be exposed to the meson source language, they were meant just for documentation.
2020-02-20Introduce dataonly for the pkgconfig moduleRohan Garg2-0/+17
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/269 Fixes #4011
2020-02-19docs: Fix Dub section being inside CMake section [skip ci]Niklas Hambüchen1-1/+1
It should be a `##` heading, not a `###` heading. Also make heading label consistent with the others.
2020-02-19modules/cmake: Add a found() method to the cmake subprojectDylan Baker1-0/+2
Just like the native meson subproject has.
2020-02-19docs: Improve visibility for `.enabled()` etc., add example [skip ci]Niklas Hambüchen2-5/+32

2020-02-17minstall: Add a new option --quietNirbheek Chauhan2-2/+16
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 ```
2020-02-17modules/python: Do not error out if positional args are passedNirbheek Chauhan1-2/+3
Also update the documentation. Fixes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/6470

2020-02-12Refine behaviour of add_languages() when native: is missingJon Turney2-5/+24
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. v2: Do it the right way around!
2020-02-09Add add_languages(native:)Jon Turney2-9/+20
v2: Retain not using logical-and, to avoid short-circuiting side-effects of add_languages()

Add a "system" dependency for zlib
2020-02-06Make 'default_library' per-subproject builtin optionXavier Claessens2-1/+17
Currently it's just like if all builtin/base/compiler options are yielding. This patch makes possible to have non-yielding builtin options. The value in is overriden in this order: - Value from parent project - Value from subproject's default_options if set - Value from subproject() default_options if set - Value from command line if set

2020-02-06fs: add expanduser methodMichael Hirsch, Ph.D1-2/+14
this should help users specify leading `~` in various Meson options and variables without refactoring lots of places inside Meson itself.
2020-02-06fs: add methods as_posix, is_absoluteMichael Hirsch, Ph.D1-5/+36
fs: make exception specify method name fs: actually raise exceptions fs: resolve path e.g. /opt/foo/.. => /opt/foo fs: correct behavior of is_symlink
2020-02-06docs: explain the purpose of order-only deps for generated files [skip ci]Marc Herbert1-5/+6
The documentation of "order-only" dependencies is limited and their various purposes are especially not clear. See issue #6391 for a recent example, search the internet for many more. So mention the particular purpose here while making the documentation barely longer.

2020-02-05add meson.get_native_property for native filesMichael Hirsch, Ph.D1-0/+16
This allows Meson native-file [properties] to be used. This avoids the need to call meson from a script file or have a long command line invocation of `meson setup` The method meson.get_native_property('prop', 'fallback') is added. The native file can contain properties like ``` [properties] myprop1 = 'foo' mydir2 = 'lib/custom' ``` Then from within `meson.build` ```meson x1 = meson.get_native_property('myprop1') thedir = meson.get_native_property('mydir2', 'libs') ``` fallback values are optional
