pass -DLEAKS=ON or -DODR=ON to enable these features. They have an
effect only with CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Asan and don't work on Apple because
Apple clang doesn't enable them.
There is a new find module since cmake 3.12. Cmake 3.27 will start
emitting warnings if the old modules are still in use.
Current implementation supports both. As soon as we can bump our minimal
cmake version to 3.12, the old support code can be dropped as well.
the deprecation submodule will house content related to deprecation.
That is general convenience function and functions related to specific
deprecation issues. The latter starts with decorator functions to bridge
the change in qof_session_begin argument change to SessionOpenMode.
This also drops the python wrapper for gnc-module. As for the guile wrappers,
python should use other means of loading our shared libraries.
This commit required a few tweaks to the dependency chain as some units
inherited dependency information from gnc-module's public dependency
interface.
file(COPY ) will only trigger when the destination file doesn't exist yet.
It won't retrigger on source file changes.
configure_file on the other hand will. To avoid unwanted substitution
attempts this can be invoked with the COPYONLY keyword.
Disadvantage of configure_file is that it will only take one
input file where file(COPY ) can operate on a list of files.
As such the configure_file statement has to be wrapped in a foreach.
A few uses of file(COPY ) can't be replaced as they are setting
file permissions. And the one in make_dist has been kept as that
always operates on an empty directory, hence copying is guaranteed.
The former will monitor the file for updates and copy it again
the latter will only copy the file if it doesn't exist in the destination yet
app-utils now is an ordinery shared library
A few bits worth mentioning:
1. it's not guile-free just yet, so instead of a gnc_module_load
your code may have to call scm_c_use_module("gnucash app-utils");
to expose the scm side of the app-utils api. This call has been
added to gnucash-bin.c for example
2. while lots of noise in this commit is to rename from gncmodule-app-utils
to gnc-app-utils, I'll point out the library has also been moved from
<libdir>/gnucash to <libdir>. This required changes in app-util's
CMakeLists.txt file for the install side and in the top level
CMakeLists.txt file for the build directory structure.
3. The C side link module test has been removed as linking an ordinary
shared library should be considered well tested by the compiler devs.
The scheme side module load test has been slightly tweaked to no longer
try to use gnc:module-load, but instead now checks whether the app-utils
api is properly exposed to scheme after loading it via use-modules.
4. Dropped a completely obsolete README file.
This commit tries to do the minimum necessary to move the guile bits from engine
to bindings/guile. As engine is a very central piece in the software, this unfortunately
still touches many other source files:
- A few helper objects have been squashed together:
* engine-helpers-guile.[ch] (of which the c part is extracted from engine-helpers.c)
* gncBusGuile.[ch]
* gnc-hooks-scm.[ch]
- The initialization function of gncmod-engine no longer initializes the scm bits.
Any scm code that wants to interact with the engine code now has to load
the (gnucash engine) scm module, or sometimes (gnucash business-core).
The bulk of changes in this commit actually is updating all the scm consumers to do so.
- scm-scm target has been removed. Instead (gnucash utilities) is part
of scm-engine. A few dependency graphs have been updated for this.
More refinements will be in followup commits.
That should trigger a regeneration of these swig sources if
any of the header files change.
This is done via a small macro that can be reused for other wrappers as well.
Note
cmake 3.15 introduces a 'FILTER' generator expression
that might allow us to do something like the following:
$<FILTER:$<TARGET_PROPERTY:baselib,SOURCES>,INCLUDE,"*.h[pp]?$">
I toyed briefly with that idea but it currently has two issues:
1. 3.15 is newer than our current minimum cmake requirement, so we can't
depend in that feature yet.
2. the sources are relative to *their* source directory, which
is different from the one in which the wrappers are generated
So they should still be properly transformed into absolute paths
The swig 3.0 generated python wrappers trigger a warning converted into an error issued
by gcc 8.0 for using strncpy as follows:
strncpy(buff, "swig_ptr: ", 10);
The reason is this call will truncate the trailing null byte from the string.
This appears to have been fixed in swig master already but that's not released yet
so let disable the warning when compiling the swig wrappers until it is.
When building from git it will add targets to generate the swig files.
When building from tarball it will just point at the generated source
files from the tarball.
- the two dist_add_... macros now both take a list of file names
as argument so more files can be added at once to the dist tarball.
- dist_add_generated now creates the right target by itself. There's
no need to pass one any more
- make the swig generated *.py module files explicit output files
- change a couple of custom_targets into custom_commands. The only
reason they were defined as targets was to ensure they got built
before the dist tarball. This is now properly handled by the
dist_add_... macros.
- correctly handle dependency on swig-runtime.h (using OBJECT_DEPENDS
was not the way to do it according to that property's help page)
cmake with unix makefiles fails to resolve dist dependencies
added from COPY_FROM_BUILD if these dependencies aren't built yet.
This commit replaces the COPY_FROM_BUILD based logic with two new functions
'dist_add_configured' and 'dist_add_generated' to indicate which files should
be included in the dist tarball. The latter also adds a target level dependency
to the dist tarball custom command. Hence the former should
be used for files that get generated during a cmake run while the latter
should be used for files generated as the result of a 'make/ninja-build' run
(like files for which an add_custom_command rule exists).
Note: this commit also temporarily disables the dist target when building
from a tarball (and hence it won't be tested in distcheck either). This
will be handled in a future commit.
It is split into
- /libgnucash (for the non-gui bits)
- /gnucash (for the gui)
- /common (misc source files used by both)
- /bindings (currently only holds python bindings)
This is the first step in restructuring the code. It will need much
more fine tuning later on.
