Summary:
Patch from a series of patches to rename EAPI symbols to specific
library DSOs.
EAPI was designed to be able to pass
`__attribute__ ((visibility ("default")))` for symbols with
GCC, which would mean that even if -fvisibility=hidden was used
when compiling the library, the needed symbols would get exported.
MSVC __almost__ works like GCC (or mingw) in which you can
declare everything as export and it will just work (slower, but
it will work). But there's a caveat: global variables will not
work the same way for MSVC, but works for mingw and GCC.
For global variables (as opposed to functions), MSVC requires
correct DSO visibility for MSVC: instead of declaring a symbol as
export for everything, you need to declare it as import when
importing from another DSO and export when defining it locally.
With current EAPI definitions, we get the following example
working in mingw and MSVC (observe it doesn't define any global
variables as exported symbols).
Example 1:
dll1:
```
EAPI void foo(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI void foo()
{
printf ("foo\n");
}
```
This works fine with API defined as __declspec(dllexport) in both
cases and for gcc defining as
`__atttribute__((visibility("default")))`
However, the following:
Example 2:
dll1:
```
EAPI extern int foo;
EAPI void foobar(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo = 5;
foobar();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI int foo = 0;
EAPI void foobar()
{
printf ("foo %d\n", foo);
}
```
This will work on mingw but will not work for MSVC. And that's why
EAPI is the only solution that worked for MSVC.

Summary: EAPI must be defined to dllexport when building DLL, and to dllimport when using these DLL. To achieve this, define EFL_BUILD for each library and module, and set DLL_EXPORT unconditionally. Static library are and will be not supported

so i've moved all systemd and elogind support to be runtime only with
dlopen (eina_module) of libsystemd.so.0 (or libelogind.so.0 for elput)
and finding of symbols manually at runtime (if the right code paths or
env vars are set), thus remvoing the need to decide at compile time if
efl needs systemd support or not as it no longer needs systemd
headers/libs at compile time and just at runtime. this simplifies
building a bit and makes efl more adaptive to the final target system
at runtime.
i'm tried of telling people how to turn this on. enough. on by
default. if you dont want bt's and its just some helpful log output
then just printf it or use WRN, INF and set log levels...
A little abstraction to have abstract data content bound to a type.

a new shiny buildtool that currently completes in the total of ~ 4 min..
1 min. conf time
2:30 min. build time
Where autotools takes:
1:50 min. conf time
3:40 min. build time.
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.
