  Meson/MSVC: Add more warnings to ignore

  We can actually silence more warnings here, since the issues that they cover
  can normally be fished out by the unit tests.

2022-05-23  Chun-wei Fan  <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org>

  Meson: Re-organize MSVC compiler warnings-related items

  Add a short description of each of the current compiler flags we are using for

  Gio: Use _WRAP_METHOD(..., ignore_deprecations)

2021-11-26  Kjell Ahlstedt  <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com>

  gmmproc: Add "ignore_deprecations" argument in _WRAP_METHOD()

  Makes it easier to suppress deprecation warnings when a C method has been
  deprecated, but the corresponding C++ method shall not (yet) be deprecated.

2021-11-24  Kjell Ahlstedt  <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com>

  Gio::SocketClient, TlsClientConnection: Ignore some deprecations

  g_socket_client_[set,get]_tls_validation_flags() and
  g_tls_client_connection_[set,get]_validation_flags() are deprecated in
  glib 2.72. They can't be deprecated in glibmm 2.70. Ignore the deprecations,

2021-08-27  Kjell Ahlstedt  <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com>

  Declare some copy assignment operators deleted (=delete)

  Gio::AppInfo::get_all(): Use a local TypeTraits in ListHandler

  Instead of a specialization of Glib::Container_Helpers::TypeTraits
  for Glib::RefPtr<Gio::AppInfo>, add and use struct TypeTraits_AppInfo,
  local in gio/src/appinfo.ccg and appinfo.cc.
  Modifies the issue #94 fix.

2021-07-26  Kjell Ahlstedt  <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com>

  Gio::AppInfo::get_all(): Use Glib::wrap_auto_interface()

  Applies also to get_all_for_type().
  
  Make a complete specialization of Glib::Container_Helpers::TypeTraits for
  Glib::RefPtr<Gio::AppInfo>, calling Glib::wrap(GAppInfo*, bool) which uses
  Glib::wrap_auto_interface(). The partial specialization in
  containerhandle_shared.h calls Glib::wrap_auto(), which is not acceptable
  if the GAppInfo object does not already have a wrapper, and its class type
  has been wrapped in a C++ class (e.g. GWin32AppInfo or GOsxAppInfo).

  gmmproc, DocsParser.pm: Handle gi-docgen syntax in documentation

  gtk4 has started using gi-docgen instead of gtk-doc. It has a different
  syntax for referring to methods, signals, properties and other stuff

  gmmproc does not handle the gi-docgen syntax perfectly when it converts
  to Doxygen syntax and C++ names. It has never handled gtk-doc syntax

2021-04-06  Magne Oestlyngen  <magne@spacetec.no>

  Variant: Fix so it works with C++20

  C++20 changed some aspects of templates that broke variant.h on
  some compilers (GCC 11).
  
  Ref: https://wg21.cmeerw.net/cwg/issue2237
  
    template<class T>
    struct A {
      A<T>();  // ok pre-C++20, now incorrect
  //  A();     // correct for all versions
    };
  
  This commit removes the "simple-template-id" from both the default
  constructor (no args) and the explicit constructor (has args), even
  though only the default constructor currently gives error on GCC 11.
  Since both versions are wrong according to the issue referred to above
  it is expected that GCC (and possibly other compilers) will be updated
  to fail on both cases in the future.

  Glib::Binding: Avoid warning from gcc-10

  g++-10 with optimization level -O1 or higher warns about possible use of
  an uninitialized variable when tests/glibmm_binding/main.cc is compiled.
  I don't understand why.
  
  There is no warning if the private method Glib::Binding::TransformProp::
  operator()() is compiled without optimization. Add an attribute that turns
  off optimization for this method when it's compiled with with gcc-10 or
  higher. gcc-9 does not warn. gcc-10 does not warn in glibmm-2.4, where
  std::optional is not used.

  Meson build: fix is_os_cocoa detection

  The previous check didnt work as the compiler choked on the Objective-C code

  Rewrite Gio::Tls[Client,Server]ConnectionImpl

  TlsConnection_Class::wrap_new() can wrap a C object in a TlsConnection,
  TlsClientConnectionImpl or TlsServerConnectionImpl depending on which
  interface, if any, the C object implements.
  
  No need for special wrap*() functions in Tls[Client,Server]Connection
  or SocketClient::signal_event().
  
  This is similar to Gdk::DeviceWithPad.

  Gio::SocketClient::signal_event(): Fix wrapping of 'connection' param

  GTlsClientConnection interface, wrap it in a Gio::TlsClientConnectionImpl.
  Then a signal handler can do:

  derive only from Glib::Interface, like all interfaces shall do.
  
  Tls[Client,Server]ConnectionImpl don't correspond to C classes. They can
  wrap any C object that derives from GTlsConnection and implements
  GTls[Client,Server]Connection. Such C classes in GLib are not public.
  They can't be wrapped in the usual way.

  NMake Makefiles: Use Meson-style DLL and .lib naming if requested

  To make things more consistent and less prone to confusion, if 'USE_MESON_LIBS'
  is specified in the NMake command line, build the DLLs and .lib's that are
  named like the Meson counterparts.  Binaries built with Meson+Visual Studio
  and the ones that are built via NMake using 'USE_MESON_LIBS' are
  interchangeable, provided that they are built with the same Visual Studio
  version.

  Also streamline the build process that we no longer need to explicitly run

  as part of the normal 'all' target if necessary

  Meson/Visual Studio builds: Include toolset version by default

  This makes the built DLL and .lib's contain the toolset version if the build is
  carried out using Visual Studio 2017 or later, unless the
  'msvc14x-parallel-installable' option is set to be false during configuration.
  
  The reasoning behind this change is that there are subtle problems when, for
  instance, one tries to link to a Visual Studio 2017-built glibmm when building
  gtkmm and libxml++ with Visual Studio 2019.  This is unfortunate as
  Microsoft did try hard to make interoperating between binaries built with
  Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 as easy as possible in terms of ABI and API,
  but unfortunately this hits the corner cases where this compatibility does not
  work.
  
  As the name suggests, this attempts to make Visual Studio 2017 and 2019
  builds share a single set of underlying C DLLs easier, while avoiding breakages
  caused by such subtle differences.

  NMake Makefiles: Clean up building tests and examples

  Instead of hand-written rules, just make use of what we have to generate the
  rules on the fly for most of the tests and examples, since the rules are more
  or less the same for each of the test and example programs.  We only need to
  single-out the ones that aren't buildable under Windows and those that have
  multiple programs under each directory, as opposed to one example/test program
  per directory.
  
  Even for those directories that have multiple example programs, we can pretty
  easily generate the rules for them.
  
  Also remove repeated parts that were added by accident.
  
  This can shrink the NMake Makefiles by a bit.

2020-06-16  Chun-wei Fan  <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org>

  NMake Makefiles: Use Toolset version in DLL names by default

  This updates the build to use the toolset version in the final DLL
  and .lib filenames, similar to what is done in Boost, instead of
  the Visual Studio version.
  
  This means that by default, we will use 'vc141' instead of 'vc150'
  in Visual Studio 2017 builds, and 'vc142' instead of 'vc160' in
  Visual Studio 2019 builds.
  
  If using the former naming is desired, use 'USE_COMPAT_LIBS=1' in
  the NMake command line, albeit all such binaries will now be named
  with 'vc150' in the DLL and library bames

  Fix that by only passing `notify` i.e. no superfluous `::` in that case.

  release tarballs, unless one builds giomm first.
  
  Fix this by using the __declspec(dll[ex|im]port) directives, since
  glibmm_generate_extra_defs is a simple utility library.

  meson: Build items in tools/extra_defs_gen on MSVC too

  Ensure we can generate the import lib for glibmm_generate_extra_defs on
  Visual Studio builds by using the same technique we used for glibmm and
  giomm, and build the two programs that is to be built along side with
  it.
  
  Also re-order the items in meson.build a bit so that we are able to use
  our gendef tool.

  examples/thread/dispatcher.cc: Make C++17 compliant

  std::mem_fun() and std::unary() have been removed from C++17, so port
  away from using these.

  glibmm_interface_move test: Avoid warnings in test_IFace_get_type()

  ...for Visual Studio builds, since we don't really get unused function
  warnings from the TEST_IFACE items.  Plus, we don't have glib autoptr
  support in Visual Studio builds, either.

  examples: Don't build child_watch and iochannel_stream on Windows

  These use *nix items in the code, so they won't build nor run for
  Windows unless they are ported.

  dbusconnection.ccg: Include giomm/unixfdlist.h on *NIX only

  In Meson builds, we don't even generate giomm/unixfdlist.h unless we are
  building for *nix, and we aren't using the items there on non-*nix
  builds.

  gio/giomm/meson.build: Use giomm-int rule for all builds

  Like the previous commit, let builds from release tarballs and GIT
  checkouts build the giomm-int static library, and link the final
  .so/.dll from the objects that form giomm-int static .lib.  By doing so
  we can build giomm with the import libraries for Visual Studio builds
  with gendef, as well as linking in the version resource for all Windows
  builds.

  glib/glibmm/meson.build: Use glibmm-int rule for all builds

  Let builds from release tarballs and GIT checkouts build the glibmm-int
  static library, and link the final .so/.dll from the objects that form
  glibmm-int static .lib.  By doing so we can build glibmm with the import
  libraries for Visual Studio builds with gendef, as well as linking in
  the version resource for all Windows builds.

  tools: Use POSIX-style path for m4 in gmmproc

  Otherwise the script gets confused as the slashes were not escaped

2020-03-02  Chun-wei Fan  <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org>

  meson.build: Allow Visual Studio builds in GIT checkouts

  It is now possible to build glibmm directly from GIT checkouts as long
  as there is a working m4 executable (such as fomr Cygwin or MSYS64), so
  we can allow builds directly from GIT checkouts.

  meson.build: Always look for libsigc++ via pkg-config

  We have Meson build support for libsigc++ before we got into this drive
  for Meson support for building glibmm, so let's just always look for
  libsigc++ with pkg-config.

2020-03-01  Kjell Ahlstedt  <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com>

  Add support for building glibmm with Meson

  glibmm can be built with either Autotools or Meson.
  
  See MR !27

2020-03-01  Kjell Ahlstedt  <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com>

  Prepare existing files for building with Meson

  * examples/network/resolver.cc: Don't include config.h. It's not used.
  * glib/glibmm/ustring.cc: Check if GLIBMM_SIZEOF_WCHAR_T is defined.
  * tools/generate_wrap_init.pl.in:
  * tools/gmmproc.in: Change '\@' to '\ @'. Meson's configure_file()
  removes a backslash immediately before an at-sign.

  generate-msvc.mak: Correct path to find gmmproc PERL modules

  The GLIBMM_MODULE_NAME should be glibmm-2.x, not giomm-2.x

2020-02-26  Chun-wei Fan  <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org>

  NMake Makefiles: Add targets to ease build from GIT checkouts

  This will enable one to generate the following files:
  
  MSVC_NMake/glibmm/glibmmconfig.h
  MSVC_NMake/glibmm/glibmm.rc
  MSVC_NMake/giomm/giommconfig.h
  MSVC_NMake/giomm/giomm.rc
  
  when building from a GIT checkout.
  
  This will also enable one to generate the following files:
  tools/gmmproc
  tools/generate_wrap_init.pl
  
  from a GIT checkout or from a source tree unpacked from a release tarball so
  that one can use these to build directly from a GIT checkout using NMake,
  or to have gmmproc and generate_wrap_init.pl ready to use to build other
  -mm libraries.

2020-02-26  Chun-wei Fan  <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org>

  NMake Makefiles: "Install" gmmproc items

  ...so that one may be able to use these in the future for other -mm packages.
  
  Also update the header installation as they could have been generated during
  the build.  Update README.win32 to indicate building from a GIT checkout is
  better supported, and how one may carry this build out.

2020-02-26  Chun-wei Fan  <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org>

  MSVC_NMake: Add rules to generate and build sources

  ...from a GIT checkout, from the various .ccg/.hg and the *.[cc|h].m4 sources,
  as well as the wrap_init.cc sources.  This will obviously require PERL, as well
  as a Cygwin or MSYS installation that has a working m4 executable for Windows
  for this to work.  Note that release tarballs continue to build on Visual
  Studio as they did before, without the need for PERL nor m4.
  
  Note that this does not yet support generating [glib|gio]mmconfig.h nor
  [glib|gio]mm.rc from their .in counterparts, as well as tools\gmmproc
  and tools\generate_wrap_init.pl, which will be done in a later commit.

2020-02-26  Chun-wei Fan  <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org>

  NMake Makefiles: build glibmm_generate_extra_defs-2.xx.lib

  Since this is entirely buildable by Visual Studio, build it as well and see
  whether we can use this to allow builds from GIT checkouts for other -mm
  libraries with MSVC builds.
  
  Copy this .lib and its header upon 'install'.

  MSVC_NMake/config-msvc.mak: Correct libsigc++ libname

  libsigc++'s Meson build files have been corrected to produce
  sigc-3.0.lib like the autotools builds, so make sure we link to the
  correct .lib file.

  Variant: Avoid . to not split an intro doc comment

  Doxygen interprets the first . to mean the end of the introductory
  blurb, so that resulted in this sentence suddenly ending after the "i."
  in "i.e." in the short version and having a line break there in the long

  NMake Makefiles: Split outdir by toolset version

  This reduces the likelihood of accidently mixing binaries linked to
  different CRT versions within a single build tree.
  
  Also, fix up building the tests as new tests were added along the way.

  NMake Makefiles: Use /utf-8 where available

  This avoids miscompilations and errors when building under certain
  locales (Chinese, Korean and Japanese in particular) as the compiler
  could not handle Unicode sequences properly without this flag.
