* Modernize cmake buildAlexandru Croitor2019-02-071-1/+4

This also lays the foundation for allowing 3rd parties to use the shiboken2 generator to generate custom modules. This is achieved by eliminating various hardcoded paths for libraries and include directories. Start using CMake targets throughout the build code to correctly propagate link flags and include dirs for libshiboken and shiboken2 executable targets. Same for the libpyside target. Generate two separate cmake config files (build-tree / install-tree) that can be used with find_package(Shiboken2), to make sure that the PySide2 project can be built as part of the super project build. This is currently the only way I've found to allow the super build to work. Note that for the build-tree find_package() to work, the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH has to be adjusted in the super project file. The generated config files contain variables and logic that allow usage of the installed shiboken package in downstream projects (PySide2). This involves things like getting the includes and libraries for the currently found python interpreter, the shiboken build type (release or debug), was shiboken built with limited api support, etc. Generate 2 separate (build-tree and install-tree) config files for PySide2, similar to how it's done for the shiboken case, for pyside2-tools to build correctly. Install shiboken2 target files using install(EXPORT) to allow building PySide2 with an installed Shiboken2 package (as opposed to one that is built as part of the super project). Same with PySide2 targets for pyside2-tools subproject. Make sure not to redefine uninstall targets if they are already defined. Add a --shorter-paths setup.py option, which would be used by the Windows CI, to circumvent creating paths that are too long, and thus avoiding build issues. Output the build characteristics / classifiers into the generated build_history/YYYY-MM-DD_AAAAAA/build_dir.txt file, so it can be used by the test runner to properly filter out blacklisted tests. This was necessary due to the shorter paths options. Fix various issues regarding target includes and library dependencies. Remove certain duplicated cmake code (like limited api check and build type checks) in PySide2, given that that information will now be present in the exported shiboken2 config file. Include a short README.cmake.md file that describes how to build the super project.

* Allow building shiboken2 and PySide2 as separate wheelsAlexandru Croitor2018-10-121-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

in preparation for a subtree merge. this should not be necessary to do in a separate commit, but git is a tad stupid about following history correctly without it.
