Partial, Meson-only implementation of #2976 for non-MSVC builds.
Due to the prevalence of private symbol reuse, linking to a shared
library is simply utterly unreliable, but we still want to defer to the
shared library for installable applications. By linking to both, we can
share symbols where possible, and statically link where needed.
This means we no longer need to manually track every file that needs to
be extracted and reused.
The flip side is that MSVC completely does not support this, so for MSVC
builds we just link to a full static copy even where
-Ddefault_library=shared.
As a side benefit, by using library inclusion rather than including
extra explicit object files, the zstd program shrinks in size slightly
(~4kb).
The poolTests program already linked to libzstd, and later to
libtestcommon with included libzstd objects. So this was redundant.
Minus 4 compile steps.
While trying to raise an exception on failures, it instead raised an
exception for misusing the exception. CalledProcessError is only
supposed to be used when given a return code and a command, and it
prints:
Command '{cmd}' returned non-zero exit status {ret}
Passing an error message string instead, just errored out with:
TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required positional argument
Instead use the subprocess module's base error which does accept string
messages. Everything that used to error out, still errors out, but now
they do so with a slightly prettier console message.
This matches the Makefile build. Due to one private xxhash symbol in use
by the program, it recompiles a private copy of xxhash.
Due to the test binaries making extensive (?) use of private symbols, it
doesn't even attempt to link to shared libzstd, and instead, all of the
original object files are added to libtestcommon itself for private
linkage. This, too, matches the Makefile build.
Ref. #2261
* Removing symbols that are not being tested
* Removing symbols used in zstdcli, fileio, dibio and benchzstd
* Removing symbols used in zbuff and add test-zbuff to travis
* Removing remaining symbols and adding unit tests instead
* Removing symbols test entirely
* tests: Fix shellcheck warnings in playTests.sh
* tests: Do not use ../programs which is relative to tests dirs
This commit fixes error when running playTests.sh in Meson.
Mesonbuild runs out of tree, so ./datagen not in `zstd/tests` dir,
it lies in <mesonbuilddir>/tests. This leads to ../programs invalid.
* tests: Replace relative paths for zstd/tests dir
* playTests: Set shell options explicitly, not in shebang
* playTests: Replace echo -e with printf
* meson: Fix test-zstd
Use std=gnu99 to build and test just like `make test`.
* meson: Fix legacy test
* meson: Enable testing in CI
Run build under release mode for faster test time.
* meson: Increase timeout time for test-zstream
