libccid now uses meson build tool

Meson for libccid

A typical use case is:

meson setup builddir
cd builddir
meson compile
meson install

If you need/want to disable or enable some libccid options then change the first command to use something like:

meson setup builddir -Dserial=true -Dembedded=true

The available options are (file meson.options):

extra_bundle_id

appended to the name of the bundle directory

class

enable the CCIDCLASSDRIVER in Info.plist

composite-as-multislot

composite device are seen as multi-slots (disabled by default)

embedded

for embedded systems [limit RAM and CPU resources by disabling features (log)] (disabled by default)

os_log

use os_log(3) instead of printf() for debug (Sierra 10.12 and up)] (disabled by default)

pcsclite

use pcsc-lite debug support

serial

build the driver for the serial CCID readers (disabled by default)

zlp

enable the Zero Length Packet patch for some Gemalto readers (disabled by default)

In the case of regression

If you need a special configuration that is not possible using meson it is still possible to generate and run the configure script and build libccid as before:

./bootstrap
./configure your_arguments

You can also create a patch and submit it to https://salsa.debian.org/rousseau/PCSC/ or https://github.com/LudovicRousseau/PCSC.

Conclusion

Meson is a nice tool.

I do not expect regression but since version 1.6.0 is the first release with meson support I may have missed some use cases.
