* add target_util.zig which has ported code from src/target.cpp
* Module gains an arena that owns memory used during initialization
that has the same lifetime as the Module. Useful for constructing
file paths and lists of strings that have mixed lifetimes.
- The Module memory itself is allocated in this arena. init/deinit
are modified to be create/destroy.
- root_name moves to the arena and no longer needs manual free
* implement the ability to invoke `zig clang` as a subprocess
- there are lots of TODOs that should be solved before merging
* Module now requires a Random object and zig_lib_dir
* Module now requires a path to its own executable or any zig
executable that can do `zig clang`.
* Wire up more CLI options.
* Module creates "zig-cache" directory and "tmp" and "o" subdirectories
("h" is created by the cache_hash)
* stubbed out some of the things linker code needs to do with TODO
prints
* delete dead code for computing compiler id. the previous commit
eliminated the need for it.
* add `zig translate-c` CLI option but it's not fully hooked up yet.
It should be possible for this to be fully wired up before merging
this branch.
* `zig targets` now uses canonical data for available_libcs
* build.zig: repair the ability to link against llvm, clang, and lld
* move the zig cc arg parsing logic to stage2
- the preprocessor flag is still TODO
- the clang arg iterator code is improved to use slices instead of
raw pointers because it no longer has to deal with an extern
struct.
* clean up error printing with a `fatal` function and use log API
for messages rather than std.debug.print
* add support for more CLI options to stage2 & update usage text
- hooking up most of these new options is TODO
* clean up the way libc and libc++ are detected via command line
options. target information is used to determine if any of the libc
candidate names are chosen.
* add native library directory detection
* implement the ability to invoke clang from stage2
* introduce a build_options.have_llvm so we can comptime branch
on whether LLVM is linked in or not.
This commit adds a `--stack [size]` link-time option to zig compiler
allowing the user to override the default stack size set for the
specified executable/library format. This is currently limited to
ELF, COFF and Wasm however (i.e., Mach-O is excluded).
Rather than stuffing configuration information into the Zig binary, the
build script reads it from config.h. This solves a problem for package
maintainers and improves the use case of deterministic builds.
closes#3758
This caused link errors in c++ code because it was not correct to pass
these flags to child codegens. And that was the only reason to detect
these flags. Otherwise we can safely rely on non-explicitly-detected
flag forwarding.
This is only the first step; it makes zig cc recognize -z and append it to the linker args, but the linker arg parsing doesn't support -z yet so it will just give the warning 'unsupported linker arg: -z'
* `-isystem` instead of `-I` for system include directories
fixes a problem with native system directories interfering with zig's
bundled libc.
* separate Stage2Target.is_native into Stage2Target.is_native_os and
Stage2Target.is_native_cpu.
* The generated options data file is sorted now in a way that
makes sure longer prefixes are first. This prevents collisions
with some parameters.
* Add support for `-fPIC`, `-fno-PIC`, `-nostdlib`, `-shared`,
`-rdynamic`, `-Wl,-soname`, `-Wl,-rpath`
* Better support for `-o`.
* Disable generating h files
* Shared library support.
* Better positional argument support.
Previously the zig build system incorrectly assumed that the only build
artifact was a binary. Now, when you enable the cache, only the output
dir is printed to stdout, and the zig build system iterates over the
files in that directory, copying them to the output directory.
To support this change:
* Add `std.os.renameat`, `std.os.renameatZ`, and `std.os.renameatW`.
* Fix `std.os.linux.renameat` not compiling due to typos.
* Deprecate `std.fs.updateFile` and `std.fs.updateFileMode`.
* Add `std.fs.Dir.updateFile`, which supports using open directory
handles for both the source and destination paths, as well as an
options parameter which allows overriding the mode.
* Update `std.fs.AtomicFile` to support operating based on an open
directory handle. Instead of `std.fs.AtomicFile.init`, use
`std.fs.Dir.atomicFile`.
* `std.fs.AtomicFile` deinit() better handles the situation when the
rename fails but the temporary file still exists, by still
attempting to remove the temporary file.
* `std.fs.Dir.openFileWindows` is moved to `std.os.windows.OpenFileW`.
* `std.os.RenameError` gains the error codes `NoDevice`,
`SharingViolation`, and `PipeBusy` which have been observed from
Windows.
Closes#4733
