I have a Bazel toolchain that sets different linker flags for exe/shared lib.
I wanted to build postgresql shared libs with meson using the same toolchain flags that I build all my other 3rd party deps in Bazel. Currently for postgresql builds, we set LDFLAGS to the Bazel toolchain executable flags which means that any postgresql shared_library() gets the exe flags. I noticed ldflags_sl was already setup to pass through shared_library flags, but I couldn't find a way to set it via meson build options. ________________________________ From: Peter Eisentraut <pe...@eisentraut.org> Sent: Monday, June 16, 2025 9:32 PM To: Matt Smith (matts3) <mat...@cisco.com>; pgsql-hack...@postgresql.org <pgsql-hack...@postgresql.org> Subject: Re: [PATCH] Add an ldflags_sl meson build option On 16.06.25 06:10, Matt Smith (matts3) wrote: > Currently there doesn't seem to be a way to pass shared library-specific > flags via a meson build option. > > This patch allows the existing ldflags_sl to be set via a build option. What uses do you have in mind for this?
