This restricts disallowing value types to containers that can own
them.
It also disallows usage of @owned on those view-only containers,
as that makes no sense.
You can now declare errors like this:
error Foo = "message"; [[documentation]]
Then you can use them as types like this:
foo {
return: error(Error1, Error2, ...);
}
They have a separate type category and storage. They are checked
for redefinitions the same as anything else though. This does
not add any generator support nor it adds any advanced checking.

This has been deprecated for a while and is not strictly necessary
- as a part of an effort to stabilize Eolian, remove this. Eolian
will eventually gain support for versioning and use a reversed
behavior (i.e. no NULL by default), but the API it wlll use for
that will be very different. Features can always be added, it's
much harder to drop them.
@feature
This was an experiment that never properly took off and was never
used by any generator. Its use was highly variable, so it could
not be relied upon. We will still want to reverse the current
behavior eventually (no null by default), but that will be
done with eo file versioning in the future.
@feature
This is to prepare for type/class renaming support. This adds
the necessary API to retrieve C-specific names. Other refactoring
is necessary elsewhere for now.
This also renames the old API eolian_class_c_name_get to
eolian_class_c_macro_get to avoid conflict as well as clarify
the intention.
unit tests automatically abort with info after 60s, and tests should be run with
an appropriate timeout to avoid conflict with the test runner's default 30s timeout
set explicit timeout in eio test for now because there's still frequent bugs here

This splits the eolian_file_parse API into two, one for parsing
files already present in the database (always by filename) and
one for parsing paths.
It fixes several bugs/leaks on the way (incorrect use of
stringshare etc.) as well as adds checking for whether there
are no conflicting filenames at scan time, for free. That means
it is now no longer possible to scan two paths which have an eo
or eot file of the same name in them.
It should also be faster now.
It also fixes T7820.

Summary:
This removes all Eolian API that deals with handling of legacy
code. It also removes the code using it in the generator as well
as bindings, but for now keeps generation of .eo.legacy.h types,
as there are still instances in our codebase where things are
otherwise broken. We can remove the rest once that is resolved.

If legacy implementations are generated, eolian_gen now creates
a separate file for them and includes it. The file name convention
for that is <.c file name without ext>.legacy.<.c file name ext>
or <.c file name>.legacy.c if it has no ext, so for example
foo.eo.c becomes foo.eo.legacy.c and foo becomes foo.legacy.c.
The file is generated assuming there are any legacy APIs contained
inside the .eo file.
That means, it can only now be used on parameters and struct
fields, never aliased within typedefs. This simplifies the
logic so that we don't have ptr metadata buried several layers
deep.
This adds support for generating reflection functions for
properties. This support is basic for now, supporting only
primitive types and string(shares), it will be expanded later
as required.
@feature
Summary:
Eolian adds a per-class BETA guard (like EFL_UI_WIN_BETA) to any method tagged
as @beta. This means that any app (and the EFL code) wanting to use BETA features
has to enable them class by class, which is cumbersome.
This commit replaces the individual guards with the global EFL_BETA_API_SUPPORT
guard, so apps only need to define one symbol to access BETA features.
Any usage of the per-class guards has been removed from the EFL code and examples.
When building EFL the global guard is defined by configure, so all EFL methods
already have access to BETA API.
Efl_Core.h and Efl_Ui.h no longer define EFL_BETA_API_SUPPORT. Apps wanting to
use BETA API have to define this symbol before including any EFL header
(It has been added to the examples requiring it).

make && make check && make examples still work, but there's a lot less #defines

As in the previous commit explained, we want to get rid of class
functions in eo, and make them just c functions right away.
This commit removes the class parameter from the eo_class_function_set
call, and adjusts the tests to not depend on class functions anymore.
Class functions are now not tested anymore, tests that used them as a
way to test *things* are adjusted to test them now with object
functions, tests that just tested the working of class functions are
dropped.
This fixes T7675.

Until this commit eo did class functions as part of the vtable, which
enabled those functions to be overwritten in classes inheriting another
class. However in task T7675 we decided that this is not really good for
bindings, as most OOP languages do not support this sort of feature.
After this commit eolian realizes class function completly outside of
the vtable, the c-symbol that is the class funciton is now just directly
redirecting to a implementation, without the involvement of the vtable.
This also means a change to the syntax created by eo:
Calling before:
class_function(CLASS_A);
Calling after:
class_function();
Implementation before:
class_function(const Eo *obj, void *pd) { ... }
Implementation after:
class_function(void) { ... }
This fixes T7675.

Each regular class can now have a section called 'composite',
which can contain interfaces and interfaces only. This defines
a list of interfaces that are allowed to be unimplemented on the
class, as it is assumed the class will be composited with some
other class implementing those interfaces.
Only regular classes can have this, as only regular classes can
be instantiated.
It will also be necessary to check whether the classes in the
section appear somewhere within the inheritance tree. For now,
this testing is not being done.
Example of usage:
composite {
Some.Magic.Interface;
Another.Magic.Interface;
}
directly in the class body.

This is needed in order to support checking the correct regular classes

This introduces a new keyword called required. It only works on mixins.
You can specify a list of regular/abstract classes in there.
Classes specified after the required keyword are later used to verify
the usage of the mixin. With this feature a mixin can define a list of
types that the inheriting object (the object that inherits from a mixin)
needs to fullfill, if one class that is required is not in the
implemented classes, then eolian will bail out.

Having these files would result in eolian cxx tests failing when
building using autotools, as eolian generators by default include
entire src directory and eolian cxx already had classes a/b/c.
In an ideal case this should not happen as eolian cxx should not
scan tests that are not its own, and it already behaves correctly
under meson but there is no good way to fix it for autotools, so
just rename as a workaround.
This new syntax separates the parent class from extensions, in
a familiar way to similar to e.g. Java. Since changing everything
at once is a lot of effort, implement it alongside for the time
being.
Eolian now separates 'parent' and 'extensions'. For regular
classes, parent is the first item in the inherits list and
extesions is the rest. For interfaces and mixins, parent is
NULL and extends is the inherits list.
The reason for this is the separation of them in syntax in near
future. It also slightly changes the behavior; since for interfaces
and mixins, parent is always NULL now, you can freely inherit from
all types of classes without needing to manually put an interface
type as the first item of the inherits list.
This will make it easier for generators and utilities to retrieve
the class that implemented a method/property/etc rather than the
class the implement was originally defined for. Thanks to this
it will no longer be necessary to carry the class pointer around
the place.
Summary:
This tagging keyword explicitly asks, for bindings that support it,
that the constructor's parameters are added to the class constructor.
Allowing the user to instantiate the class and call the constructor in
a straightforward way.

This uses the meson/ninja depfile functionality + eolian to make
sure proper dependencies between generated files and .eo files
are managed, to ensure consistent re-generation of all generated
files that are affected upon .eo file modification.
For custom rules with multiple outputs, Ninja currently does not
support depfiles. Therefore, split those into two custom rules
so that the depfiles functionality can be enabled. While this
is ugly and slows down the process a little by having to invoke
Eolian twice instead of once, it has to be done and it's still
better than what we had in Autotools anyway.

meson was taken because it went quite good for enlightenment, and is a traction gaining system that is also used by other mayor projects. Additionally, the DSL that is defined my meson makes the configuration of the builds a lot easier to read.
Further informations can be gathered from the README.meson
Right now, bindings & windows support are missing.
It is highly recommented to use meson 0.48 due to optimizations in meson
that reduced the time the meson call would need.
