Remove --debug-incremental
This flag is also added to the build system. Importantly, this tells
Compile step whether or not to keep the compiler running between
rebuilds. It defaults off because it is currently crashing
zirUpdateRefs.
Changes the `make` function signature to take an options struct, which
additionally includes `watch: bool`. I intentionally am not exposing
this information to configure phase logic.
Also adds global zig cache to the compiler cache prefixes.
Closes#20600
and add file system watching integration.
`addDirectoryWatchInput` now returns a `bool` which helps remind the
caller to
1. call addDirectoryWatchInputFromPath on any derived paths
2. but only if the dependency is not already captured by a step
dependency edge.
The make function now recursively walks all directories and adds the
found files to the cache hash rather than incorrectly only adding the
directory name to the cache hash.

And use it to implement InstallDir Step watch integration.
I'm not seeing any events triggered when I run `mkdir` in the watched
directory, however, and I have not yet figured out why.
This has been planned for quite some time; this commit finally does it.
Also implements file system watching integration in the make()
implementation for UpdateSourceFiles and fixes the reporting of step
caching for both.
WriteFile does not yet have file system watching integration.
I'm still learning how the fanotify API works but I think after playing
with it in this commit, I finally know how to implement it, at least on
Linux. This commit does not accomplish the goal but I want to take the
code in a different direction and still be able to reference this point
in time by viewing a source control diff.
I think the move is going to be saving the file_handle for the parent
directory, which combined with the dirent names is how we can correlate
the events back to the Step instances that have registered file system
inputs. I predict this to be similar to implementations on other
operating systems.
Adds a missing call to addLazyPathDependenciesOnly in
std.Build.Module.addCSourceFiles. Also fixes an issue in
std.Build.Step.WriteFile where it wasn't updating all the GeneratedFile
instances for every directory. To fix the second issue, I removed
all the GeneratedFile instances and now all files/directories reference
the steps main GeneratedFile via sub paths.
The actual `zig objcopy` does not accept keeping multiple sections.
If you pass multiple `-j .section` arguments to `zig objcopy`, it will
only respect the last one passed.
Originally I changed `zig objcopy` to accept multiple sections
and then concatenate them instead of returning after outputting the
first section (see emitElf) but I realized concatenating probably doesn't make sense.
The docs for setting stdio to "inherit" say:
It also means that this step will obtain a global lock to prevent other
steps from running in the meantime.
The implementation of this lock was missing but is now provided by this
commit.
closes#20119
Introduces `disable_zig_progress` which prevents the build runner from
assigning the child process a progress node.
This is needed for the empty_env test which requires the environment to
be completely empty.
This allows running commands that take an output directory argument. The
main thing that was needed for this feature was generated file subpaths,
to allow access to the files in a generated directory. Additionally, a
minor change was required to so that the correct directory is created
for output directory args.
* `doc/langref` formatting
* upgrade `.{ .path = "..." }` to `b.path("...")`
* avoid using arguments named `self`
* make `Build.Step.Id` usage more consistent
* add `Build.pathResolve`
* use `pathJoin` and `pathResolve` everywhere
* make sure `Build.LazyPath.getPath2` returns an absolute path
This replaces `extra_file_dependencies` with support for lazy paths.
Also assert output file basenames are not empty, avoid improper use of
field default values, ensure stored strings are duplicated, and
prefer `ArrayListUnmanaged` to discourage misuse of direct field access
which wouldn't add step dependencies.
writeFile was deprecated in favor of writeFile2 in f645022d16361865e24582d28f1e62312fbc73bb. This commit renames writeFile2 to writeFile and makes writeFile2 a compile error.
Adds an `include_paths` field to RcSourceFile that takes a slice of LazyPaths. The paths are resolved and subsequently appended to the -rcflags as `/I <resolved path>`.
This fixes an accidental regression from https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/19174. Before that PR, all Win32 resource compilation would inherit the CC flags (via `addCCArgs`), which included things like include directories. After that PR, though, that is no longer the case.
However, this commit intentionally does not restore the previous behavior (inheriting the C include paths). Instead, each .rc file will need to have its include paths specified directly and the include paths only apply to one particular resource script. This allows more fine-grained control and has less potentially surprising behavior (at the cost of some convenience).
Closes#19605
This function incorrectly assumed that module name subsections, function
name subsections, and local name subsections are encoded the same,
however according to
[the specification](https://webassembly.github.io/spec/core/appendix/custom.html)
they are encoded differently.
This commit adds support for parsing module name subsections correctly,
which started appearing after upgrading to LLVM 18.
Windows does not support RPATH and only searches for DLLs in a small
number of predetermined paths by default, with one of them being the
directory from which the application loaded.
Installing both executables and DLLs to `bin/` by default helps ensure
that the executable can find any DLL artifacts it has linked to.
DLL import libraries are still installed to `lib/`.
These defaults match CMake's behavior.
This is a partial revert of 105db13536b4dc2affe130cb8d2eee6c97c89bcd.
As we learned from Void Linux packaging, these options are not actually
helpful since the distribution package manager may very well want to
cross-compile the packages that it is building.
So, let's not overcomplicate things. There are already the standard
options: -Dtarget, -Dcpu, and -Ddynamic-linker.
These options are generally provided when the project generates machine
code artifacts, however, there may be a project that does no such thing,
in which case it makes sense for these options to be missing. The Zig
Build System is a general-purpose build system, after all.
