Jehan 93cc81281c Issue #11317: make Python plug-ins mandatory.
Unlike the other bindings (Lua, JS, Vala) where we only have a demo
plug-in, we actually have a bunch of interesting and useful Python
plug-ins.

Furthermore, we are running several Python scripts through GIMP during
our build (to generate a few images), so pygobject becomes a build
dependency anyway, even if it may not be a run dependency with
-Dpython=disabled.

This all becomes a bit confusing and in fact handling this case (of not
installing Python plug-ins) seems like an annoyance while we lose good
core plug-ins. So let's just make Python plug-ins mandatory. It's not
like Python is very controversial these days, and AFAWK, it is available
on every platform out there.

Issue #4053: Add "*default_bin" support on Windows and enable it
Almost every program have a non-versioned .exe on Windows. MSYS2 does this too.

Bruno Lopes 4c968d9aa0 meson, build/windows: generate AppList, StoreLogo and *Tile .png's
Most of the work in this commit is by @Jehan.

These icons are used only by the .msix (MS Store) distribution of GIMP.

Some legacy icons are used only by Windows 10 and need to have smaller logo
than full image dimensions, so let's not use colorsvg2png. We just pass the
dimensions to use by configuring variants of the same base script.

Heiko Becker 8b2574e917 meson: Add explicit options for cfitsio and openmp

to be installed.

Alx Sa ab93a1484a meson: Add option to compile Amiga IFF
Code provided by @lillolollo
Since libilbm and libiff are not in all repositories yet, this adds an option so
it is not required when building GIMP.

Michael Natterer 37dfa24def meson: default to create default binary symlinks only in stable versions 2023-05-23 10:34:47 +02:00
Jehan 1993f7461a meson: API binding options transformed to features.
- Lua, Javascript and Python were boolean defaulting to true, which was
  installing them even when not available (and if not installed then, it
  would show warnings at each run). Instead I make them features with
  'auto' as default. In this default, we don't install when the
  interpreters are absent.
- These 3 options can still be forced by setting them to 'enabled' (the
  interpreters are not actually necessary during build).
- Vala behavior stay the same (and unlike other binding, you cannot
  force it since it has a build step); it's only renamed to just "vala"
  for consistency of option naming.

Jehan 9ce27be989 meson: improve/fix previous commit from MR !725.
- Setting an exec_dir variable is an error. As meson docs says, if
  relative, it is installed relatively to prefix anyway: "If this is a
  relative path, it is assumed to be relative to the prefix."
  On the other hand, it would make problems if someone tried to set an
  absolute bindir.
  Moreover it is a lot clearer now. When we want to install in the
  binary directory unconditionally, then get_option('bindir') is the
  meson way, hence the way to go.
- On the other hand, the `gimp-debug-tool` is installed either in bindir
  for Windows or macOS and libexecdir for all other platforms, at least
  that's how it's set in the autotools build. So let's keep both builds
  consistent.
- Make a hopefully clearer description for enable-default-bin option.
  Let's clarify this is just about creating unversionning links pointing
  to versionned files.
- Adding an item in the "Optional Features" part of the summary listing
  during meson configure, for better discovery.

For the ".exe" extension on Windows, I wished we had an $(EXEEXT)
equivalent on meson rather than trying to set it ourselves (are there
other platforms where we must set a different extension?). But I could
not find any.

Markus Volk c9fabacca2 meson: make gir buildable
yocto/oe is capable of building gobject introspection despite cross-compiling.
add an option to enable gir build even if cross-compiling

Signed-off-by: Markus Volk <f_l_k@t-online.de>

Reviewer note (Jehan): this whole stuff is a mess. Actually I'd like to
simply get rid of the whole no-gir-when-cross-compiling logics but I
still can't figure out how to cross-build generically with GIR.
Yet since some manage it with yocto, let's unblock them.
See #7208.

Jehan d5e22ad313 configure, meson, devel-docs: make gi-docgen into an auto option.
Also called "feature" option in meson, so that by default it depends on
auto-detection of the gi-docgen hence won't break the configuration when
the tool is missing (the feature is simply disabled).

Also move the program check into the root meson file, which is anyway
much better to have a better visibility of features, otherwise we'd end
up just having tests everywhere in any possible random directory of the
repo.

Finally add a line in the summary of the configuration step, displaying
the docs generation being enabled or disabled.

Niels De Graef 92e80d12e8 docs: Migrate from gtk-doc to gi-docgen
gtk-doc has been slowly dying for the past few years; with gi-docgen we
have a nice successor.

This also makes sure the C documentation also uses the GIR file, which
in turn means faster build times (since all the C code doesn't have to
be parsed and recompiled again), and has a clear dependency graph.

See the [gi-docgen tutorial] for more info on how the system works.

Jehan d4a951dc6b meson: PNG support has not been an optional feature since forever!
Not sure why this was set as optional in the meson build, as it was
already mandatory in the autotools build back then (and for as long as I
remember).

Jehan a982809c5f configure, meson, plug-ins: unmaintain WebkitGTK-depending plug-ins.
This is an official way to declare these plug-ins as now
unmaintained/deprecated.
Relevant plug-ins are:

1) help-browser (Displaying the docs): nowadays every desktop machine
   has a browser. Let's just use whatever is the person's default
   browser.
2) web-page (Web screenshot): it looks to me like every browser has this
   feature by default now (I use it all the time in Firefox to get a
   full-page screenshot, never in GIMP), even on mobile, I am told. It's
   nice to have it in GIMP too, but not like absolutely necessary.

On the other hand:

1. It's a hell to build, with a lot of issues. We have regular issues on
   our Flatpak-s. We don't manage to build it on our CI (only locally
   apparently). Also it takes a crazy amount of time (like 90% of CI
   build-time would be webkit).
2. From what I gather, new versions don't work on Windows anymore. Even
   MSYS2 seems to have dropped the ball and don't try anymore.
   Basically we would have a feature disparity from GIMP 3.0 (most
   platform but Windows). We don't know when it will be resolved (if
   ever) as it's been like this for years.

Now why we are keeping the code around instead of just removing
everything is that the topic tree in the help browser is useful and
comfortable to use. Ideally we should get some equivalent to help
browsing the help efficiently in the web docs as well (so basically
menus, web search and alike?). So I am told to keep the code around at
least for now to see if we can figure something out or improve the
situation.
Except for this point, we can consider the WebkitGTK plug-ins as
deprecated from GIMP 3.0 on.

Jehan f0be2256d0 meson: -Dcheck-update option as a yes|no|platform-default combo.
Similar to the previous commit for the meson build system, the
'check-update' option is not a boolean anymore, but has now 3 values.

Jehan eae3d47e32 devel-docs, meson: g-ir-doc option to generate introspected API docs.
Similar to the --enable-g-ir-doc option I just added on autotools. Also
separate this option from gtk-doc as it is unrelated (not everything
under devel-docs is related to gtk-doc!).

Jehan e77d9517f7 meson, autotools, CI: simplify plug-in binding build options.
For Python, Lua and Javascript, make the option boolean (with 'yes'
being the default). No need of a warning when not installing the
plug-ins as this would have been disabled explicitly anyway. When
installing the plug-ins, only make interpreter checks as precautionnary
verifications which don't actually change anything (except outputting
some warnings if interpreters are not found). Basically for these 3
bindings, the interpreters are only runtime dependencies anyway. So it
doesn't matter if they are not available at build time. In particular,
we get rid of the 'force' option.

Vala rules do not change as the vala compiler is indeed needed at build
time and current checks work correctly. I just add a "Vala plug-ins"
line in the summary message of the meson configuration, as it was
missing.

since the autotools build doesn't have that option either.

Jehan fae85e704a Issue #5349: meson build with -Dpoppler=false has no effect.
Poppler has not been an optional dependency for years now, because it
was decided that PDF import was considered a granted feature by most
people. So removing the option in the meson build. This option should
not have existed in the first place.

Niels De Graef 0352559efa meson: Allow running tests headless
This commit makes sure we can properly run the tests in a headless
environment, i.e. they don't mess with the user's X display or their
session bus. The latter is also needed for parallel tests as they fail
to simultaneously own the same name on the session bus.

Replaced the "xvfb-run" meson option with the "headless" option, which
is more intuitive (and also more correct, since we now also require
`dbus-run-session` to run the tests, not only `xvfb-run`).

Finally, note that we need a version of `xvfb-run` that supports the
`-d` (`--auto-display`) option. The problem with `--auto-servernum`
which is also regularly used, is that it doesn't shut down cleanly,
returning a non-zero exit code, wich makes the test fail.

Jehan 9032df515b meson: change option relocatable-bundle = yes|no|platform-default
As discussed in patch !208. Now that the feature is implemented as a
meson combo, let's have (hopefully) clearer values than
enabled|disabled|auto.

Jan Tojnar 564d35fd2e meson: relocatable-bundle should not be a feature
When we build GIMP with `-Dauto_features=enabled` to ensure we have
fully-featured GIMP and to have it warn us when we are missing some
optional dependency, Meson also enables relocatable bundle.

This is unexpected since being relocatable is a binary property rather
than a feature. This patch switches it option to a combo type to make
it ignore auto_features option.

Jehan 738dab0fce meson: fix relocatable-bundle feature and mypaint-brushes dependency.
It must not be a boolean but a `feature` option, with `auto` by default.
`auto` value mean enabled for macOS and Win32, and disabled for other
cases. This default logics disappeared in the meson build.

Also the mypaint-brushes package is a mandatory dependency, which must
always be checked. Absence is fatale.
Finally properly set the MYPAINT_BRUSHES_DIR macro depending on the
proper relocatable case.
