Be aware that hundreds of project have made that move already, including very large projects. Distro maintainer knows the drill to move forward. Overall it has been welcome as it reduces the build time on their farm. For those using non-gcc compilers, it has been quite positive as a lot of compiler specific hacks exist per-project with autotools, some project get it right, some don't. With Meson this is unified and solved once correctly. As this library is always a deps of another project, the move to meson also enables using it as subproject. This can greatly simplify making dedicated build, it will notably make our life easier for CI integration. > > > > > Thanks, > > > > Ezequiel Garcia (1): > > Add support for meson building > > > > gen-version.sh | 36 ++++++++++ > > lib/libdvbv5/meson.build | 87 ++++++++++++++++++++++ > > lib/libv4l2/meson.build | 43 +++++++++++ > > lib/libv4lconvert/meson.build | 79 ++++++++++++++++++++ > > lib/meson.build | 6 ++ > > meson.build | 108 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > meson_options.txt | 19 +++++ > > utils/cec-compliance/meson.build | 39 ++++++++++ > > utils/cec-ctl/meson.build | 33 +++++++++ > > utils/cec-follower/meson.build | 35 +++++++++ > > utils/gen_media_bus_format_codes.sh | 7 ++ > > utils/gen_media_bus_format_names.sh | 7 ++ > > utils/ir-ctl/meson.build | 30 ++++++++ > > utils/libcecutil/meson.build | 46 ++++++++++++ > > utils/media-ctl/meson.build | 35 +++++++++ > > utils/meson.build | 32 +++++++++ > > utils/v4l2-compliance/meson.build | 52 ++++++++++++++ > > utils/v4l2-ctl/meson.build | 65 +++++++++++++++++ > > version.h.in | 1 + > > 19 files changed, 760 insertions(+) > > create mode 100755 gen-version.sh > > create mode 100644 lib/libdvbv5/meson.build > > create mode 100644 lib/libv4l2/meson.build > > create mode 100644 lib/libv4lconvert/meson.build > > create mode 100644 lib/meson.build > > create mode 100644 meson.build > > create mode 100644 meson_options.txt > > create mode 100644 utils/cec-compliance/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/cec-ctl/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/cec-follower/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/gen_media_bus_format_codes.sh > > create mode 100644 utils/gen_media_bus_format_names.sh > > create mode 100644 utils/ir-ctl/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/libcecutil/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/media-ctl/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/v4l2-compliance/meson.build > > create mode 100644 utils/v4l2-ctl/meson.build > > create mode 100644 version.h.in > > > > > Thanks, > Mauro
