Windows doesn't have rpaths for DLLs so we instead add
search paths to Path environment variable when running
an executable that depends on DLLs built with zig build.
* in Zig build scripts, getOutputPath() is no longer a valid function
to call, unless setOutputDir() was used, or within a custom make()
function. Instead there is more convenient API to use which takes
advantage of the caching system. Search this commit diff for
`exe.run()` for an example.
* Zig build by default enables caching. All build artifacts will go
into zig-cache. If you want to access build artifacts in a convenient
location, it is recommended to add an `install` step. Otherwise
you can use the `run()` API mentioned above to execute programs
directly from their location in the cache. Closes#330.
`addSystemCommand` is available for programs not built with Zig
build.
* Please note that Zig does no cache evicting yet. You may have to
manually delete zig-cache directories periodically to keep disk
usage down. It's planned for this to be a simple Least Recently
Used eviction system eventually.
* `--output`, `--output-lib`, and `--output-h` are removed. Instead,
use `--output-dir` which defaults to the current working directory.
Or take advantage of `--cache on`, which will print the main output
path to stdout, and the other artifacts will be in the same directory
with predictable file names. `--disable-gen-h` is available when
one wants to prevent .h file generation.
* `@cImport` is always independently cached now. Closes#2015.
It always writes the generated Zig code to disk which makes debug
info and compile errors better. No more "TODO: remember C source
location to display here"
* Fix .d file parsing. (Fixes the MacOS CI failure)
* Zig no longer creates "temporary files" other than inside a
zig-cache directory.
This breaks the CLI API that Godbolt uses. The suggested new invocation
can be found in this commit diff, in the changes to `test/cli.zig`.
closes#2024
there's a new cli option `--main-pkg-path` which you can use to choose
a different root package directory besides the one inferred from the
root source file
and a corresponding build.zig API:
foo.setMainPkgPath(path)
* CLI: `-target [name]` instead of `--target-*` args.
This matches clang's API.
* `builtin.Environ` renamed to `builtin.Abi`
- likewise `builtin.environ` renamed to `builtin.abi`
* stop hiding the concept of sub-arch. closes#1526
* `zig targets` only shows available targets. closes#438
* include all targets in readme, even those that don't
print with `zig targets` but note they are Tier 4
* refactor target.cpp and make the naming conventions
more consistent
* introduce the concept of a "default C ABI" for a given
OS/Arch combo. As a rule of thumb, if the system compiler
is clang or gcc then the default C ABI is the gnu ABI.
New CLI parameter: --c-source [options] [file]
It even works with `--cache on` when there are transitive dependencies.
Instead of `builder.addCExecutable`, use `builder.addExecutable` and pass
`null` for the root source file. Then use `builder.addCSourceFile`,
which takes the path to the C code, and a list of C compiler args.
Be sure to linkSystemLibrary("c") if you want libc headers to be
available.
Merge TestStep into LibExeObjStep. That was long overdue.
* also fix extern variables with initialiaztion values to generate runtime code
* remove the workaround in example/shared_library/mathtest.zig
* introduce the ability for global variables to have Weak and LinkOnce
linkage
* fix `@export` to work for non-functions. this code needs to be
audited though.
* fix comptime ptrcast not keeping bigger alignment
* fix linker warnings when targeting darwin
closes#1903
Mostly picking the same paths as FreeBSD.
We need a little special handling for crt files, as netbsd uses its
own (and not GCC's) for those, with slightly different names.
* Fixes breaches of the guarantee that `@sizeOf(T) >= @alignOf(T)`
* Fixes std.mem.secureZero for integers where this guarantee previously
was breached
* Fixes std.mem.Allocator for integers where this guarantee previously
was breached
Closes#1851Closes#1864
This is not intended to be the long-term implementation as it doesn't
provide various properties that we eventually will want (e.g.
round-tripping, denormal support). It also uses f64 internally so the
wider f128 will be inaccurate.
Previously, std.debug.assert would `@panic` in test builds,
if the assertion failed. Now, it's always `unreachable`.
This makes release mode test builds more accurately test
the actual code that will be run.
However this requires tests to call `std.testing.expect`
rather than `std.debug.assert` to make sure output is correct.
Here is the explanation of when to use either one, copied from
the assert doc comments:
Inside a test block, it is best to use the `std.testing` module
rather than assert, because assert may not detect a test failure
in ReleaseFast and ReleaseSafe mode. Outside of a test block, assert
is the correct function to use.
closes#1304
* zig fmt
* std.mem.join takes a slice of slices instead of var args
* std.mem.join takes a separator slice rather than byte,
and always inserts it. Previously it would not insert the separator
if there already was one, violating the documented behavior.
* std.mem.join calculates exactly the correct amount to allocate
and has no call to allocator.shrink()
* bring back joinWindows and joinPosix and the corresponding tests.
it is intended to be able to call these functions from any OS.
* rename std.os.path.resolveSlice to resolve (now resolve takes
a slice of slices instead of var args)
this should actually improve CI times a bit too
See the description at the top of std/os/startup.zig (deleted in this
commit) for a more detailed understanding of what this commit does.
* rename std.mem.split to std.mem.tokenize
* add future deprecation notice to docs
* (unrelated) add note to std.os.path.resolve docs
* std.mem.separate - assert delimiter.len not zero
* fix implementation of std.mem.separate to respect the delimiter
* separate the two iterators to different structs
`std.mem.Allocator.createOne` is renamed to `std.mem.Allocator.create`.
The problem with the previous API is that even after copy elision,
the initalization value passed as a parameter would always be a copy.
With the new API, once copy elision is done, initialization
functions can directly initialize allocated memory in place.

This adds another boolean to the test matrix; hopefully it does not
inflate the time too much.
std.event.Loop does not work with this option yet. See #1908
This commit contains everything from the copy-elision-2
branch that does not have to do with copy elision directly,
but is generally useful for master branch.
* All const values know their parents, when applicable, not
just structs and unions.
* Null pointers in const values are represented explicitly,
rather than as a HardCodedAddr value of 0.
* Rename "maybe" to "optional" in various code locations.
* Separate DeclVarSrc and DeclVarGen
* Separate PtrCastSrc and PtrCastGen
* Separate CmpxchgSrc and CmpxchgGen
* Represent optional error set as an integer, using the 0 value.
In a const value, it uses nullptr.
* Introduce type_has_one_possible_value and use it where applicable.
* Fix debug builds not setting memory to 0xaa when storing
undefined.
* Separate the type of a variable from the const value of a variable.
* Use copy_const_val where appropriate.
* Rearrange structs to pack data more efficiently.
* Move test/cases/* to test/behavior/*
* Use `std.debug.assertOrPanic` in behavior tests instead of
`std.debug.assert`.
* Fix outdated slice syntax in docs.
Prior to this fix, the compare-outputs test suite was showing a strange
behavior, the tests always stopped between tests 6-8 and had a stack track
similar to each other.
```
Test 8/68 compare-output multiple files with private function (ReleaseSmall)...OK
/usr/home/mgxm/dev/zig/zig-cache/source.zig:7:2: error: invalid token: '&'
}&(getStdOut() catch unreachable).outStream().stream;
^
The following command exited with error code 1:
```
With the wrong O_* flags, the source code was being written in append mode which
resulted in an invalid file
```zig
use @import("foo.zig");
use @import("bar.zig");
pub fn main() void {
foo_function();
bar_function();
}&(getStdOut() catch unreachable).outStream().stream;
stdout.print("OK 2\n") catch unreachable;
}
fn privateFunction() void {
printText();
}
```
I originally called the Slice variants to work around
comptime code not supporting `@ptrCast`, but I fixed that
in 757d0665 so now the workaround is no longer needed.
FreeBSD doesn't mount procfs as default on the base system, so we can't
depend on it to get the current path, In this case, we use sysctl(3) to
retrieves the system information and get the same information.
- CTL_KERN: High kernel limits
- KERN_PROC: Return selected information about specific running
processes.
- KERN_PROC_PATHNAME: The path of the process
- Process ID: a process ID of -1 implies the current process.
The system call getrandom(2) just landed on FreeBSD 12, so if we want to
support some earlier version or at least FreeBSD 11, we can't depend on
the system call.
* add `@bswap` builtin function. See #767
* comptime evaluation facilities are improved to be able to
handle a `@ptrCast` with a backing array.
* `@truncate` allows "truncating" a u0 value to any integer
type, and the result is always comptime known to be `0`.
* when specifying pointer alignment in a type expression,
the alignment value of pointers which do not have addresses
at runtime is ignored, and always has the default/ABI alignment
* threw in a fix to freebsd/x86_64.zig to update syntax from
language changes
* some improvements are pending #863closes#638closes#1733

The routines are:
__fixdfdi, __fixdfsi, __fixdfti,
__fixsfdi, __fixsfsi, __fixsfti,
__fixtfdi, __fixtfsi, __fixtfti.
These all call fixint which is a generic zig function that does the
conversion:
pub fn fixint(comptime fp_t: type, comptime fixint_t: type, a: fp_t) fixint_t
There are also a set tests:
__fixdfdi_test, __fixdfsi_test, __fixdfti_test,
__fixsfdi_test, __fixsfsi_test, __fixsfti_test,
__fixtfdi_test, __fixtfsi_test, __fixtfti_test.
