meson:tldr:c869a
This command is used to initialize a new Meson build system for a project. Meson is a high-performance build system used to compile and manage software projects.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
meson init
is the command to initialize a Meson build system. -
--language=${c}
specifies the programming language of the project. In this case, it is set to${c}
which indicates that the value for the language will be provided by the user. -
--name=${myproject}
sets the name of the project. Similar to the language,${myproject}
represents a variable that requires a user-defined value. -
--version=${0-1}
sets the version number for the project. Again,${0-1}
is a variable placeholder that expects a user-specified value.
By replacing the variables ${c}
, ${myproject}
, and ${0-1}
with appropriate values, this command will generate the necessary files and folders to start building the project using Meson.
