* Improve build rules for module generationAlexandru Croitor2018-10-231-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously whenever a typesystem XML file changed, this resulted in a full rebuild of all cpp files generated for that particular module. This change shifts the rules of building in such a way, that files are rebuilt only if their content has changed. XML modifications should generally not cause full rebuilds anymore, unless the change is in a global header. This is achieved in the following way, assuming a binding library "foo" added by add_library(foo ...): 1) CMake calls shiboken via add_custom_command. 2) The OUTPUT file for the command is the generated mjb_rejected_classes.log file, which serves as a timestamp for when shiboken was last run. 3) All the generated cpp files are marked as "Generated" via the add_custom_command BYPRODUCTS option. This allows the files to have an older timestamp than that of an XML file, thus not forcing constant shiboken re-execution. 4) A new custom target foo_generator is added via add_custom_target. 5) This target has a dependency on the mjb_rejected_classes.log file, and the target itself is added as a dependency to the "foo" target. 6) Whenever "foo" is built, it will first try to build "foo_generator" which will force the shiboken custom command to be run, which will generate the cpp files and mjb_rejected_classes.txt file. The BYPRODUCT cpp files can then be used as sources in the "foo" target. 7) If a user modifies the XML file listed in the add_custom_command DEPENDS option, this will re-trigger shiboken execution, which will create a new mjb_rejected_classes.log file, which means that the "foo" target might be rebuilt if, and only if, any of the cpp file timestamps are new. Otherwise "foo" doesn't need to be rebuilt.

* Allow building shiboken2 and PySide2 as separate wheelsAlexandru Croitor2018-10-121-0/+63
Actually this creates 3 wheel packages: - shiboken2 (the python module and libshiboken shared library) - shiboken2-generator (contains the generator executable, libclang and dependent Qt libraries) - PySide2 (the PySide2 modules and Qt shared libraries, and tools like rcc, uic) Calling the setup.py script will not do the actual build now (in the sense of calling CMake, make, etc.). Instead it will spawn new processes (via subprocess.call) calling the same setup.py script, but with different arguments. These "sub-invocations" will do the actual building. Thus, the "top-level invocation" will decide which packages to build and delegate that to the "sub-invocations" of setup.py. A new optional command line argument is introduced called "--build-type" which defaults to "all", and can also be set to "shiboken2", "shiboken2-generator" and "pyside2". A user can choose which packages to build using this option. The "top-level invocation" uses this option to decide how many "sub-invocations" to execute. A new command line argument called "--internal-build-type" takes the same values as the one above. It defines which package will actually be built in the new spawned "sub-invocation" process. The "top-level invocation" sets this automatically for each "sub-invocation" depending on the value of "--build-type". This option is also useful for developers that may want to debug the python building code in the "sub-invocation". Developers can set this manually via the command line, and thus avoid the process spawning indirection. A new class Config is introduced to facilitate storage of the various state needed for building a single package. A new class SetupRunner is introduced that takes care of the "--build-type" and "--internal-build-type" argument handling and delegation of "sub-invocations". A new class Options is introduced to 'hopefully', in the future, streamline the mess of option handling that we currently have. setup.py now is now simplified to mostly just call SetupRunner.run_setup(). Certain refactorings were done to facilitate further clean-up of the build code, the current code is definitely not the end all be all. Various other changes that were needed to implement the wheel separation: - a new cmake_helpers directory is added to share common cmake code between packages. - the custom popenasync.py file is removed in favor of using subprocess.call in as many places as possible, and thus avoid 10 different functions for process creation. - Manifest.in is removed, because copying to the setuptools build dir is now done directly by prepare_packages functions. - because prepare_packages copies directly to the setuptools build dir, avoiding the pyside_package dir, we do less copying of big Qt files now. - versioning of PySide2 and shiboken2 packages is now separate. shiboken2 and shiboken2-generator share the same versions for now though. - shiboken2 is now listed as a required package for PySide2, to facilitate pip requirements.txt dependencies. - coin_build_instructions currently needs to install an unreleased version of wheel, due to a bug that breaks installation of generated wheel files. - added separate command line options to pyside2_config.py for shiboken2-module and shiboken2-generator. - adapted samplebinding and scriptableapplication projects due to shiboken being a separate package. - adapted pyside2-tool and shiboken2-tool python scripts for setup tools entry points. - made some optimizations not to invoke cmake for shiboken2-generator when doing a top-level "all" build. - fixed unnecessary rpaths not to be included on Linux (mainly the Qt rpaths).
