GtkBuilder XML uses enum nicknames, full names, or integer values, but
we accept GIR names, so passing those through doesn't work if the name
has an underscore (which traditionally turns into a dash in the
nickname). Avoid the problem by always writing the integer value of the
enum member.
For normal compilation, use .typelib files rather than .gir XML files.
This is much faster.
Rather than using libgirepository, which would try to actually load the
libraries, we use a custom parser.
The language server will still read XML because it needs to access
documentation, which is not in the typelib, but that's generally fine
because it's a long lived process and only has to do that once.
I want all language elements to be defined in the same folder, rather
than having the "core" language split by parsing/AST/completions and the rest
split by language element.
`blueprint-compiler port` interactively ports a project to blueprint.
It will create the subproject wrap file, add it to .gitignore, decompile
your GtkBuilder XML files, emit code to copy and paste into your
meson.build file, and update POTFILES.in.
It can't quite handle all of the features the forward compiler can, so
it will skip those files.
