name: executable
returns: exe
description: |
Creates a new executable. The first argument specifies its name and
the remaining positional arguments define the input files to use.
The lists for the kwargs (such as `sources`, `objects`, and `dependencies`) are
always flattened, which means you can freely nest and add lists while
creating the final list.
The returned object also has methods that are documented in [[@exe]].
*Since 1.3.0* executable names can be the same across multiple targets as
long as they each have a different `name_suffix`.
warnings:
- The `link_language` kwarg was broken until 0.55.0
posargs_inherit: _build_target_base
varargs_inherit: _build_target_base
kwargs_inherit: _build_target_base
kwargs:
export_dynamic:
type: bool
since: 0.45.0
description: |
when set to true causes the target's symbols to be
dynamically exported, allowing modules built using the
[[shared_module]] function to refer to functions,
variables and other symbols defined in the executable itself. Implies
the `implib` argument.
implib:
type: bool | str
since: 0.42.0
description: |
When set to true, an import library is generated for the
executable (the name of the import library is based on *exe_name*).
Alternatively, when set to a string, that gives the base name for
the import library. The import library is used when the returned
build target object appears in `link_with:` elsewhere. Only has any
effect on platforms where that is meaningful (e.g. Windows). Implies
the `export_dynamic` argument.
pie:
type: bool
since: 0.49.0
description: Build a position-independent executable.
vs_module_defs:
type: str | file | custom_tgt | custom_idx
since: 1.3.0
description: |
Specify a Microsoft module definition file for controlling symbol exports,
etc., on platforms where that is possible (e.g. Windows).
This can be used to expose which functions a shared_module loaded by an
executable will be allowed to use.
