- Don't have tests repeat themselves, meson has a `--repeat` flag
- Fix a minor leak of a GRand
- Speed up a test
- Increase timeout
This still needs a lot of improvements, it runs at lot of loops within
loops generating random strings that could be optimized. This means
it can take a very long time on some computers.
Closes#2629
Quick rundown of benefits:
- Much faster:
- Autotools (with autogen): 22 seconds
- Meson: 7 seconds
- Meson (with ccache): 2 seconds
- Simpler:
- ~1000 lines smaller
- Single simple language
- Potentially better Windows (Visual Studio) support
What is not done:
- Complete Windows support
- OSX support (easy)
Closes#2013Closes#1937Closes#1803
When hexchat is already installed into a non-default prefix, a new build
could pick up ${prefix}/include/hexchat-plugin.h from the installed
version instead of the local header, as configuration variables such as
$(GLIB_CFLAGS) would point to -I${prefix}/include.
Reordering the includes and moving -I arguments to CPPFLAGS prevents
this, as it ensures the local directories are always searched first.
This was no problem when compiling for /usr or /usr/local as these
directories in the compiler search path are always searched last.
Closes#1822
- Output directly to rel\ instead of to bin\ and then copying files over.
- Deduped Win32 vs x64 configs
- Moved some common properties to hexchat.props
- All build intermediates (except htm's intermediates) are no longer emitted in the source directory
- Store openssl flags in own vars
- Share some common flags for plugins
- Fix building plugins on win32
- Store all glib flags in one var
- Don't link against every lib for each plugin
- Don't hardcode ldflags for sysinfo
Note that this affects the test program only. It doesn't affect users
of FiSHLiM. The reason for this change is that XChat doesn't seem to be
maintained any longer.
