Alex Xu (Hello71) 8531ea72 2021-10-08T09:51:10 build: add enable-tools option this is mainly useful for multilib, but may be useful for other users as well Signed-off-by: Alex Xu (Hello71) <alex_y_xu@yahoo.ca>
Peter Hutterer d7b39f6f 2020-07-10T08:50:02 Add /etc/xkb as extra lookup path for system data files This completes the usual triplet of configuration locations available for most processes: - vendor-provided data files in /usr/share/X11/xkb - system-specific data files in /etc/xkb - user-specific data files in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb The default lookup order user, system, vendor, just like everything else that uses these conventions. For include directives in rules files, the '%E' resolves to that path. Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net>

Peter Hutterer ed57fb8b 2020-07-08T12:51:54 tools: add a xkbcli tool as entry point for the various tools we have This is the base tool, no subtools are currently connected so you only get help and version for now. The goal here is to have a git-like infrastructure where /usr/bin/xkbcli is the main tool, anything else will hide in libexec. The infrastructure for this is copied from libinput. Tools themselves will will be installed in $prefix/libexec/xkbcommon and the xkbcli tool forks off whatever argv[1] is after modifying the PATH to include the libexec dir. libinput has additional code for checking whether we're running this from the builddir but it's a bit iffy and it's usefulness is limited - if you're in the builddir anyway you can just run ./builddir/xkbcli-<toolname> directly. So for this code here, running ./builddir/xkbcli <toolname> will execute the one in the prefix/libexecdir. Since we want that tool available everywhere even where some of the subtools aren't present, we need to ifdef the getopt handling. man page generation is handled via ronn which is a ruby program but allows markdown for the sources. It's hidden behind a meson option to disable where downloading ronn isn't an option. The setup is generic enough that we can add other man-pages by just appending to the array.

Peter Hutterer afb26e7d 2020-05-12T14:09:50 Add libxkbregistry to query available RMLVO This library is the replacement for clients parsing evdev.xml directly. Instead, they should use the API here so that in the future we may even be able to swap evdev.xml for a more suitable data format. The library parses through evdev.xml (using libxml2) and - if requested - through evdev.extras.xml as well. The merge approach is optimised for the default case where we have a system-installed rules XML and another file in $XDG_CONFIG_DIR that adds a few entries. We load the system file first, then append any custom ones to that. It's not possible to overwrite the MLVO list provided by the system files - if you want to do that, get the change upstream. XML validation is handled through the DTD itself which means we only need to check for a nonempty name, everything else the DTD validation should complain about. The logging system is effectively identical to xkbcommon. Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net>
Ran Benita 86434d84 2017-07-25T21:57:42 build: add meson build system Meson is easier to maintain, much faster, encourages better practices, and is not built on a pile of shell scripts. The autotools build system is kept intact for now, in order to ease the migration. The intention is to remove it sooner rather than later, if all goes well. Run `meson build && mesonconf build` to see the configuration options for the new system. Conversion should be straightforward. Environment variables like CFLAGS work the same. If meson is used, xorg-util-macros is not required. In terms of functionality the two systems have about the same capabilities. Here are some differences I noticed: - Meson uses `-g` by default, autotools uses `-g -O2`. - In autotools the default behavior is to install both static and shared versions of the libraries. In meson the user must choose exactly one (using -Ddefault_library=static/shared). It is possible to workaround if needed (install twice...), but hopefully meson will add the option in the future. - Autotools has builtin ctags/cscope targets, meson doesn't. Easy to run the tools directly. - Meson has builtin benchmarks target. Handy. - Meson has builtin support for sanitizers/clang-analyzer/lto/pgo/ coverage etc. Also handy.
