2020-09-10Don't require build machine compilers for project() languagesJon Turney1-5/+13
This means that, in the common case of a simple meson.build which doesn't contain any 'native: true' targets, we won't require a native compiler when cross-compiling, without needing any changes in the meson.build.

2020-09-04introspect: add test dependencies info to test/benchmark JSONPaolo Bonzini2-0/+11
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>

2020-08-30Clarify the use of -Doption and alternatives [skip ci]Sebastian Engel1-4/+8
The -Doption=value style argument works for all builtin options, and compiler options passed to meson. And some universal options, have additional ways to be passed. However, base options (and compiler options) do not have exactly the same ways of passing as universal options. This change adds a few pieces of information, which might get lost, if the manual is not read serially. [skip ci]
2020-08-27test: Add 'dir' support for installed files in test.jsonDaniel Mensinger1-0/+1
This is useful for automatically generated docs (doxygen, hotdoc) with a lot of generated files that may differ with different versions of the generator.

2020-08-25qt module: add qresource support to compile_translationsEli Schwartz2-0/+36
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.

This attempts to clarify the usage of strings and arrays, as well as document the boolean type that has been exposed via the project and built-in options
2020-08-01Allow setting built-in options from cross/native filesDylan Baker2-5/+68
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.

2020-07-21Add boost_root support to properties files (#7210)cmcneish1-2/+6
* Add boost_root support to properties files This commit implements `boost_root`, `boost_includedir`, and `boost_librarydir` variable support to native and cross properties files. The search order is currently environment variables, then these variables, and finally a platform-dependent search. * Add preliminary boost_root / boost_includedir tests Each test contains a fake "version.hpp", as that's how boost detection is currently being done. We look for this file relative to the root directory, which probably shouldn't be allowed (it previously was for BOOST_LIBRARYDIR but not for BOOST_ROOT). It also cannot help with breakage detection in libraries, however it looks like this wasn't getting tested beforehand. I've given the two unique version numbers that shouldn't be present in any stock version of boost (001 and 002). * Add return type to detect_split_root * Return empty list when nothing found in BOOST_ROOT, rather than None * Update boost_root tests * Create nativefile.ini based on location of run_project_tests.py * Add fake libraries to ensure boost_librarydir is being used * Require all search paths for boost to be absolute * Redo boost search ordering To better match things like pkg-config, we now look through native/cross files, then environment variables, then system locations for boost installations. Path detection does not fall back from one method to the next for properties or environment variables--if boost_root, boost_librarydir, or boost_includedir is specified, they must be sufficient to find boost. Likewise for BOOST_ROOT and friends. pkg-config detection is still optional falling back to system-wide detection, for Conan. (Also, fix a typo in test 33's nativefile) * Correct return type for detect_roots * Correct boost dependency search order in documentation * Print debug information for boost library finding, to resolve CI issues * Handle native/cross file templates in a more consistent way All tests can now create a `nativefile.ini.in` if they need to use some parameter that the testing framework knows about but they can't. * Pass str--rather than PosixPath--to os.path.exists, for Python35 * Look for boost minor versions, rather than boost patch versions in test cases * Drop fake dylib versions of boost_regex * Prefer get_env_var to use of os.environ * Correct error reporting for relative BOOST_ROOT paths * Bump version this appears in. Also, change "properties file" to "machine file" as that appears to be the more common language.
