See README for general information. Read below for usage with Meson.
libgd is intended to be used as a submodule from other projects. This requires passing default_options to the subproject
which was added in Meson 0.38.0. To see a full list of options you can run mesonconf $your_build_dir. If building a
non-static library pkglibdir must be set to a private location to install to which you will also want to pass (an absolute path)
with the install_rpath keyword to any executables. For introspection files you also must set pkgdatadir.
So given a Meson project using git you would run this to do initial setup:
mkdir subprojects git submodule add https://git.gnome.org/browse/libgd subprojects/libgd
Then from within your meson.build file:
libgd = subproject('libgd',
default_options: [
'with-tagged-entry=true'
]
)
# Pass as dependency to another target
libgd_dep = libgd.get_variable('libgd_dep')
#include "libgd/gd.h" int main(int argc, char **argv) { gd_ensure_types(); /* As a test */ return 0; }
pkglibdir = join_paths(get_option('libdir'), meson.project_name())
pkgdatadir = join_paths(get_option('datadir'), meson.project_name())
libgd = subproject('libgd',
default_options: [
'pkglibdir=' + pkglibdir,
'pkgdatadir=' + pkgdatadir,
'with-tagged-entry=true',
'with-introspection=true',
'static=false',
]
)
import os import gi gi.require_version('GIRepository', '2.0') from gi.repository import GIRepository pkglibdir = '/usr/lib/foo' # This would be defined at build time pkggirdir = os.path.join(pkglibdir, 'girepository-1.0') GIRepository.Repository.prepend_search_path(pkggirdir) GIRepository.Repository.prepend_library_path(pkglibdir) gi.require_version('Gd', '1.0')
pkglibdir = join_paths(get_option('libdir'), meson.project_name())
libgd = subproject('libgd',
default_options: [
'pkglibdir=' + pkglibdir,
'with-tagged-entry=true',
'with-vapi=true'
]
)
# Pass as dependency to a Vala target
libgd_vapi_dep = libgd.get_variable('libgd_vapi_dep')
