Compiling Java applications
Meson has experimental support for compiling Java programs. The basic syntax consists of only one function and would be used like this:
project('javaprog', 'java')
myjar = jar('mything', 'com/example/Prog.java',
main_class : 'com.example.Prog')
test('javatest', myjar)
However note that Meson places limitations on how you lay out your code.
- all Java files for a jar must be under the subdirectory the jar definition is in
- all Java files must be in paths specified by their package, e.g. a class called
com.example.Something
must be in a Java file situated atcom/example/Something.java
. - Meson only deals with jar files, you cannot poke individual class files (unless you do so manually)
