Applying environment exports by <source *.sh> on meson build

[Anton-K-dev]

OS: Linux

Can anyone help, how to apply exports in meson.build during setup as I do it on terminal via
source environment.sh?

Also I have environment script from external SDK and don't want to change mode it executable.

Thanks in advance, Anton.

An environment.sh script sounds like the kind of thing you're supposed to use to set up a development shell before running meson setup.

That's correct. But can I add it to the meson.build instead of calling that before?

I'm not sure how it could -- meson isn't written in bash so it can't source the file, and forking a bash process to run it wouldn't have any effect on meson itself, only the forked subprocess.

What do you need these environment variables for? Is it possible to convert the same information to a meson native/cross file e.g. by setting paths to compiler binaries?

Ok, thank you anyway. I don't need it much enough
