Quick rundown of benefits:
- Much faster:
- Autotools (with autogen): 22 seconds
- Meson: 7 seconds
- Meson (with ccache): 2 seconds
- Simpler:
- ~1000 lines smaller
- Single simple language
- Potentially better Windows (Visual Studio) support
What is not done:
- Complete Windows support
- OSX support (easy)

MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED reflects the currently running OS X version
more closely than MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED, given it's defined as
max(current_version, MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED).
Additionally, we should check if MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9 is actually
defined, otherwise the whole macro logic breaks apart.
When hexchat is already installed into a non-default prefix, a new build
could pick up ${prefix}/include/hexchat-plugin.h from the installed
version instead of the local header, as configuration variables such as
$(GLIB_CFLAGS) would point to -I${prefix}/include.
Reordering the includes and moving -I arguments to CPPFLAGS prevents
this, as it ensures the local directories are always searched first.
This was no problem when compiling for /usr or /usr/local as these
directories in the compiler search path are always searched last.
Closes#1822
Use the (deprecated) Gestalt functionality for fetching the fine-grained
OS X version number on 10.9 and lower.
The newer NSOperatingSystemVersion structure is only available on
10.10+.
This does remove the net* commands from the
Unix version that may return at a later date
with OSX and Windows support.
This commit also makes numerious other changes
such as code cleanup, reformatting, etc.
Closes#829
- Output directly to rel\ instead of to bin\ and then copying files over.
- Deduped Win32 vs x64 configs
- Moved some common properties to hexchat.props
- All build intermediates (except htm's intermediates) are no longer emitted in the source directory
They're process-level functions and aren't meant to be called from DLLs. CoInitSecurity in particular fails with RPC_E_TOO_LATE even if no other call to CoCreateInstance has been made yet.
Fixes sysinfo's WMI calls on Windows 8.1 and above.
- Support multiple CPUs and graphics adapters in the WMI responses.
- Query max CPU frequency from WMI instead of registry.
- Support uptimes longer than 50 days.
- Don't report using /ME in notice and server notice tabs.
- Convert to C
- Store openssl flags in own vars
- Share some common flags for plugins
- Fix building plugins on win32
- Store all glib flags in one var
- Don't link against every lib for each plugin
- Don't hardcode ldflags for sysinfo
