| ## new compiler method `get_argument_syntax` |
| |
| The compiler object now has `get_argument_syntax` method, which returns a |
| string value of `gcc`, `msvc`, or an undefined value string value. This can be |
| used to determine if a compiler uses gcc syntax (`-Wfoo`), msvc syntax |
| (`/w1234`), or some other kind of arguments. |
| |
| ```meson |
| cc = meson.get_compiler('c') |
| |
| if cc.get_argument_syntax() == 'msvc' |
| if cc.has_argument('/w1235') |
| add_project_arguments('/w1235', language : ['c']) |
| endif |
| elif cc.get_argument_syntax() == 'gcc' |
| if cc.has_argument('-Wfoo') |
| add_project_arguments('-Wfoo', language : ['c']) |
| endif |
| elif cc.get_id() == 'some other compiler' |
| add_project_arguments('--error-on-foo', language : ['c']) |
| endif |
| ``` |
