It depends on the zstd program being built, and passes it as an env variable. Just like datagen. But for datagen, we explicitly depend on it, while for zstd, we assume it's built as part of "all". This can be wrong in two cases: - when running individual tests, meson can (re)build just what is needed for that one test - a later patch will handle building zstd but not by default
Meson build system for zstandard
Meson is a build system designed to optimize programmer productivity. It aims to do this by providing simple, out-of-the-box support for modern software development tools and practices, such as unit tests, coverage reports, Valgrind, CCache and the like.
This Meson build system is provided with no guarantee and maintained by Dima Krasner <dima@dimakrasner.com>.
It outputs one libzstd, either shared or static, depending on
default_library option.
How to build
cd to this meson directory (build/meson)
meson setup -Dbin_programs=true -Dbin_contrib=true builddir
cd builddir
ninja # to build
ninja install # to install
You might want to install it in staging directory:
DESTDIR=./staging ninja install
To configure build options, use:
meson configure
See man meson(1).
