releng

Build system infrastructure to ensure fast and consistent builds across projects.

Intended to be used as a git submodule at /releng in projects.

Setting up a new project

1. Set up the repo:

$ git init my-project
$ cd my-project
$ git submodule add https://github.com/frida/releng.git
$ cp releng/meson-scripts/* .
$ echo -e '/build/\n/deps/' > .gitignore

2. Create meson.build containing:

project('my-project', 'vala', version: '1.0.0')
executable('hello', 'hello.vala', dependencies: dependency('glib-2.0'))

3. Create hello.vala containing:

int main (string[] args) {
  print ("Hello World from Vala!\n");
  return 0;
}

4. Build and run:

$ make
$ ./build/hello
Hello World from Vala!
$
