This is intended to be an API-compatible refactor to
make future extensibility and configuration of
PackageCompiler.jl far simpler. The core idea is
to implement a configuration process, and corresponding
output datatype to be consumed by the build process.
This conceptually splits the process of building sysimg/app/libs,
from the high-level logic determining names, build tools, flags,
etc. The benefit of this is that it immediately commonizes
code that was duplicated amongst the three of:
create_sysimage
,create_library
, andcreate_app
. It will alsomake it far simpler to allow for configuration and propagation of flags
like
ldflags
andcflags
which are currently noteasily exposed in the build process.
This is a rough sketch of the idea, and so far the API seems
to be preserved acceptably. Feedback and design
input would be much appreciated. I suspect the
Conf
type may need some indication of
mode
sincesome terms are overloaded and may not make sense to
define in all contexts.
