very self explanatory:
Just for when declaring a dependency/external subproject, to have the ability to pass down an argument like
skip_installand ignore all the installs inside that dependencySomething like:
dep1 = dependency('mydependency', skip_install: true)This is very useful in the case for dependencies which are most commonly satically linked but dont want any of the other docs/includes the project wants to install
I know
--skip-subprojectsis a thing, but there are ocassions where this is only desired with only one dependency/subproject, dont want to skip all of them, only specific onesBeta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
