説明

I have one library project that I aim to use with a second project.

In the library project, I have set the install prefix to 'C:/Program Files/libname/'

I generate a pkg-config file using the pkg.generate() function and this goes well.

However on my second project, I have errors with the include step.

cl : Command line warning D9024 : unrecognized source file type 'Files/libname/include', object file assumed

It appears that the space in the word Program Files isn't being handled.

技術スタック: python
領域: build system
Issue 種別: bug
難度: 3
推定時間: half day
活動状況: stale
明確さ: clear
前提条件: Meson build system basicsWindows command line nuances
初心者向け度: 40
調査方針: Investigate how pkg.generate() constructs the .pc file and how the flags are passed to the compiler. Focus on the path handling in the generated pkg config file for Windows. Check if the path is quoted in the output or if there is a missing escape for spaces. Look at the relevant source files in mesonbuild/modules/pkgconfig.py or similar.
