Fixes #15054
|
|
When arrays were added they were called arrays. Because the are
implemented with Python lists, that language started leaking into
talking about Meson types. This is confusing. I've attempted, as much as
possible, to move to using one name, array. I picked array because 1)
It's the original name used, and 2) what Meson has are more properly
arrays as they have a fixed length, while a critical property of lists
are the ability to link and unlink them.
There are a couple of places where the list language has leaked into the
names of keyword arguments. I have not made any attempt to change those,
I don't know if it's that useful or not.

This method call xgettext to extract translatable
string from source files into a .pot translation template.
It differs from a plain CustomTarget in three ways:
- It accepts build targets as sources, and automatically resolves source
files from those build targets;
- It detects command lines that are too long, and writes, at config
time, the list of source files into a text file to be consumed by the
xgettext command;
- It detects dependencies between pot extraction targets, based on the
dependencies between source targets.

We want to talk about the kwargs to the custom_target() function, but
tried to link to custom_tgt instead, which is not a function. It is an
object, but this was the wrong reference method for a type.
We want the function anyway, so use that.
|
|
When referring to the custom_target docs, we want to point to the docs
on the function, not the docs on the returned method.

Logically, i18n.merge_file cannot ever take a MULTI_OUTPUT_KW, but it
does take a CT_OUTPUT_KW-like interface.
Actually trying to pass multiple merge_file outputs causes the
msgfmthelper script to be entirely malformed in the arguments it
accepts, and treat the broken one like a --flag, then exit with argparse
errors.
Even if we somehow assumed that somehow it was designed to actually
allow this, msgfmt doesn't support conceptually passing multiple outputs
so that would be a msgfmt error instead of an error inside the guts of
`meson --internal msgfmthelper`.
Same logic applies again for the itstool command and the itstool
internal helper.
Catch this error at configuration time by using the single-output kwarg
form.
Likewise, it's totally nonsense to accept multiple install_dir or
install_tags, and ever since commit 11f96380351a88059ec55f1070fdebc1b1033117
the CustomTarget itself won't even check this.

It was not added in 0.61.0 as that was already released.

Users may wish to make use of these files for their own purposes.
For example, the -pot and -update-po pseudo targets could be reused in
an alias_target(), and at least one person wanted to reuse the built .mo
files as custom_target input.

This allows us to more easily have the documentation in sync with
the source code as people will have to document new features etc
right at the time where they implement it.
