2022-05-19Add config.config.unload variable to omit loading config.buildBoris Kolpackov1-7/+34
Note that the configuration is still loaded from config.config.load if specified. Note also that similar to config.config.load, only values specified on this project's root scope and global scope are considered.
2022-05-11Add $config.origin() functionBoris Kolpackov1-0/+70
This function can be used to query the origin of a configuration variable value. The result is one of `undefined`, `default`, `buildfile`, or `override`.
2022-04-19Switch to using std::function for target::data_padBoris Kolpackov2-3/+6
2022-04-07Rename {match,execute}() to *_sync(), add *_complete()Boris Kolpackov1-1/+1
In particular, the match() rename makes sure it doesn't clash with rule::match() which, after removal of the hint argument in simple_rule, has exactly the same signature, thus making it error-prone to calling recursively.
2022-04-06Add support for rule hintsBoris Kolpackov1-3/+2
A rule hint is a target attribute, for example: [rule_hint=cxx] exe{hello}: c{hello} Rule hints can be used to resolve ambiguity when multiple rules match the same target as well as to override an unambiguous match.

2022-03-23Clarify config::save_*_omitted semanticsBoris Kolpackov1-5/+12
2022-03-22Add ability to disfigure specific configuration variablesBoris Kolpackov1-0/+27
The new config.config.disfigure variable can be used to specify the list of variables to ignore when loading config.build (and any files specified in config.config.load), letting them to take on the default values. For example: $ b configure config.config.disfigure=config.hello.fancy

2021-09-20Assign pre-defined semantics to config.<project>.develop variablesBoris Kolpackov4-24/+59
This variable allows a project to distinguish between development and consumption builds. While normally there is no distinction between these two modes, sometimes a project may need to provide additional functionality during development. For example, a source code generator which uses its own generated code in its implementation may need to provide a bootstrap step from the pre-generated code. Normally, such a step is only needed during development. See "Project Configuration" in the manual for details.

2020-05-27Initial support for ad hoc recipes (still work in progress)Boris Kolpackov1-2/+2
2020-05-27Amalgamation cutoff supportBoris Kolpackov1-4/+2
Now a project that disables amalgamation will not logically "see" an outer project even if it's physically inside its scope.
2020-04-27Rework tool importation along with cli moduleBoris Kolpackov1-0/+14
Specifically, now config.<tool> (like config.cli) is handled by the import machinery (it is like a shorter alias for config.import.<tool>.<tool>.exe that we already had). And the cli module now uses that instead of custom logic. This also adds support for uniform tool metadata extraction that is handled by the import machinery. As a result, a tool that follows the "build2 way" can be imported with metadata by the buildfile and/or corresponding module without any tool-specific code or brittleness associated with parsing --version or similar outputs. See the cli tool/module for details. Finally, two new flavors of the import directive are now supported: import! triggers immediate importation skipping any rule-specific logic while import? is optional import (analogous to using?). Note that optional import is always immediate. There is also the import-specific metadata attribute which can be specified for these two import flavors in order to trigger metadata importation. For example: import? [metadata] cli = cli%exe{cli} if ($cli != [null]) info "cli version $($cli:cli.version)"

2020-03-17Rename all find*(variable) to lookup*(variable)Boris Kolpackov3-9/+9
Now we consistently use term "lookup" for variable value lookup. At some point we should also rename type lookup to binding and get rid of all the lookup_type aliases.
