* improve error message when build manifest file is missing
* update std.zig.Ast to support ZON
* Compilation.AllErrors.Message: make the notes field a const slice
* move build manifest parsing logic into src/Manifest.zig and add more
checks, and make the checks integrate into the standard error
reporting code so that reported errors look sexy
closes#14290
* std.zig.parse is moved to std.zig.Ast.parse

Mode.zig or Mode.zon

* added parseZon function next to parseRoot function
These functions are currently footgunny when working with pointers to
arrays and slices. They just return the stated length of the array/slice
without iterating and looking for the first sentinel, even if the
array/slice is a sentinel terminated type.
From looking at the quite small list of places in the standard
library/compiler that this change breaks existing code, the new code
looks to be more readable in all cases.
The usage of std.mem.span/len was totally unneeded in most of the cases
affected by this breaking change.
We could remove these functions entirely in favor of other existing
functions in std.mem such as std.mem.sliceTo(), but that would be a
somewhat nasty breaking change as std.mem.span() is very widely used for
converting sentinel terminated pointers to slices. It is however not at
all widely used for anything else.
Therefore I think it is better to break these few non-standard and
potentially incorrect usages of these functions now and at some later
time, if deemed worthwhile, finally remove these functions.
If we wait for at least a full release cycle so that everyone adapts to
this change first, updating for the removal could be a simple find and
replace without needing to worry about the semantics.
By @Vexu's suggestion, since fetching the name from the parent package
is error-prone and complex, and optimising Package for size isn't really
a priority.
After this change, the system will be inspected for root certificates
only upon the first https request that actually occurs. This makes the
compiler no longer do SSL certificate scanning when running `zig build`
if no network requests are made.
This commit adds support for "-x language" for a couple of hand-picked
supported languages. There is no reason the list of supported languages
to not grow (e.g. add "c-header"), but I'd like to keep it small at the
start.
Alternative 1
-------------
I first tried to add a new type "Language", and then add that to the
`CSourceFile`. But oh boy what a change it turns out to be. So I am
keeping myself tied to FileExt and see what you folks think.
Alternative 2
-------------
I tried adding `Language: ?[]const u8` to `CSourceFile`. However, the
language/ext, whatever we want to call it, still needs to be interpreted
in the main loop: one kind of handling for source files, other kind of
handling for everything else.
Test case
---------
*standalone.c*
#include <iostream>
int main() {
std::cout << "elho\n";
}
Compile and run:
$ ./zig run -x c++ -lc++ standalone.c
elho
$ ./zig c++ -x c++ standalone.c -o standalone && ./standalone
elho
Fixes#10915
The `zig build` command now makes `@import("@dependencies")` available
to the build runner package. It contains all the dependencies in a
generated file that looks something like this:
```zig
pub const imports = struct {
pub const foo = @import("foo");
pub const @"bar.baz" = @import("bar.baz");
};
pub const build_root = struct {
pub const foo = "<path>";
pub const @"bar.baz" = "<path>";
};
```
The build runner exports this import so that `std.build.Builder` can
access it. `std.build.Builder` uses it to implement the new `dependency`
function which can be used like so:
```zig
const libz_dep = b.dependency("libz", .{});
const libmp3lame_dep = b.dependency("libmp3lame", .{});
// ...
lib.linkLibrary(libz_dep.artifact("z"));
lib.linkLibrary(libmp3lame_dep.artifact("mp3lame"));
```
The `dependency` function calls the build.zig file of the dependency as
a child Builder, and then can be ransacked for its build steps via the
`artifact` function.
This commit also renames `dependency.id` to `dependency.name` in the
`build.zig.ini` file.
Using zig cc with CMake on Windows was failing during compiler
detection. -nostdinc was causing the crt not to be linked, and Coff/lld.zig
assumed that wWinMainCRTStartup would be present in this case.
-nostdlib did not prevent the default behaviour of linking libc++ when
zig c++ was used. This caused libc++ to be built when CMake ran
ABI detection using zig c++, which fails as libcxxabi cannot compile
under MSVC.
- Change the behaviour of COFF -nostdinc to set /entry to the function that the
default CRT method for the specified subsystem would have called.
- Fix -ENTRY being passed twice if it was specified explicitly and -nostdlib was present.
- Add support for /pdb, /version, /implib, and /subsystem as linker args (passed by CMake)
- Remove -Ddisable-zstd, no longer needed
- Add -Ddisable-libcpp for use when bootstrapping on msvc
- add support for passing through .def files to the linker,
required for building libLTO.dll in LLVM
- fixup libcpp linking conditionals
- add option to skip linking zstd for use in bootstrapping (when
building against an LLVM with LLVM_ENABLE_ZSTD=OFF)
`-undefined dynamic_lookup` was added in #13991. `-undefined error` is the
opposite, and can be used to revert an `-undefined dynamic_lookup` flag
specified previously on the command line.
In #1622, when targeting WebAsembly, the --allow-undefined flag
became unconditionally added to the linker.
This is not always desirable.
First, this is error prone. Code with references to unkown symbols
will link just fine, but then fail at run-time.
This behavior is inconsistent with all other targets.
For freestanding wasm applications, and applications that only use
WASI, undefined references are better reported at compile-time.
This behavior is also inconsistent with clang itself. Autoconf and
cmake scripts checking for function presence think that all tested
functions exist, but then resulting application cannot run.
For example, this is one of the reasons compilation of Ruby 3.2.0
to WASI fails with zig cc, while it works out of the box with clang.
But all applications checking for symbol existence before compilation
are affected.
This reverts the behavior to the one Zig had before #1622, and
introduces an `import_symbols` flag to ignore undefined symbols,
assuming that the webassembly runtime will define them.
This fixes a regression introduced in #12298 where colors would never reset in a Windows console because the attributes would be queried on every `setColor` call, and then try to 'reset' the attributes to what it just queried (i.e. it was essentially doing a complicated no-op on .Reset).
This fixes the problem while (I think) keeping with the spirit of the changes in #12298--that is, `TTY.Config` is not specifically tied to stderr like it was before #12298. To that end, detectTTYConfig now takes a `File` and that's what gets used to query the initial attributes to reset to.
(for context, before #12298, the first `setColor` call is where the reset attributes would get queried and it would always use stderr to do it)
This commit moves the logic from `std.build.InstallRawStep` into `zig
objcopy`. The options here are limited, but we can add features as
needed.
closes#9261
New issues can be opened for specific objcopy flag support.
- C compilation flows didn't hold an exclusive lock on the cache manifest file when writing to it in all cases
- On windows, explicitly unlock the file lock before closing it
There are still a few occurrences of "stage1" in the standard library
and self-hosted compiler source, however, these instances need a bit
more careful inspection to ensure no breakage.
When testing with
```
stage4/bin/zig test ../test/behavior.zig -I../test -ofmt=c -target x86_64-windows
```
previously, one would see this message:
```
error: lld-link: subsystem must be defined
```
Now, `--subsystem console` as well as `-lntdll -lkernel32` are on the
`zig run` line, producing a binary.
Instead of checking for absolute paths and current working directories
in various file system operations, there is one simple solution: allow
overriding `std.fs.cwd` on WASI.
os.realpath is back to causing a compile error when used on WASI. This
caused a compile error in the Sema handling of `@src()`. The compiler
should never call realpath, so the commit that made this change is
reverted (95ab942184). If this breaks
debug info, a different strategy is needed to solve it other than using
realpath.
I also removed the preopens code and replaced it with something much
simpler. There is no longer any global state in the standard library.
Additionally-
* os.openat no longer does an unnecessary fstat on WASI when O.WRONLY
is not provided.
* os.chdir is back to causing a compile error on WASI.
