📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe build system separates internal compiler defines from externally supplied defines. Compiler lookup and flag generation include both collections. Build helpers and toolchains now use internal defines, and the compiler gem uses the shared lookup method. ChangesInternal compiler define handling
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to The change separates build-owned defines without changing the resulting compiler flags and addresses configuration defines being overwritten by the Visual C++ toolchain; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

`Command::Compiler#defines` mixed two things: what the build config and the
gems asked for, and what the build added on its own behalf. Split the second
kind into `internal_defines` and move the four sites that write it there:
`enable_debug` (`MRB_DEBUG`), `enable_cxx_exception` and `enable_cxx_abi`
(`MRB_USE_CXX_EXCEPTION`, `MRB_USE_CXX_ABI`), and the `visualcpp` toolchain
(`MRB_STACK_EXTEND_DOUBLING`). `all_flags` reads both lists, so every build
still compiles with the same `-D` set.
The toolchain site changes behavior. It wrote `compiler.defines = %w(...)`,
an assignment, so a config that named its own defines before selecting the
toolchain lost them:
MRuby::Build.new('msvc') do |conf|
conf.cc.defines << 'MRB_NO_STDIO'
toolchain :visualcpp
end
built without `MRB_NO_STDIO`, and a `conf.enable_debug` before the same line
lost `MRB_DEBUG` from the C compiler as well. The toolchain now unions its
define into `internal_defines`, a list no config writes, so neither the order
nor a repeated `toolchain :visualcpp` changes what the build compiles with.
`Command::Compiler#has_define?` answers from both lists. `mruby-compiler`
tests for `MRB_DEBUG` while its own mrbgem.rake body runs, where
`Build#has_define?` refuses to answer because the gems after it have not
contributed their defines yet; it reads the compiler's own list instead of
matching the name by hand. `Build#has_define?` covers `internal_defines`
too, so a build switch stays visible to the gems that ask about it.

Compare
Command::Compiler#definesholds two kinds of define at once. Most of whatlands there is what the build configuration and the gems asked for. Four sites
write the other kind, where the build adds a define on its own behalf because
one of its switches was flipped:
lib/mruby/build.rbenable_debugMRB_DEBUGconf.enable_debuglib/mruby/build.rbenable_cxx_exceptionMRB_USE_CXX_EXCEPTIONconf.enable_cxx_exceptionlib/mruby/build.rbenable_cxx_abiMRB_USE_CXX_EXCEPTION,MRB_USE_CXX_ABIconf.enable_cxx_abitasks/toolchains/visualcpp.rakeMRB_STACK_EXTEND_DOUBLINGconf.toolchain :visualcppThis PR moves those four into
internal_defines, a second list on the sameobject.
Command::Compiler#all_flagsreads both, so every build compiles withthe same
-Dset as before, and a build configuration keeps writingconf.cc.definesthe way it does today.The toolchain overwrote the configuration
The
visualcppsite is not an append but an assignment:so a configuration that named its own defines before selecting the toolchain
lost them:
cc.definescc.internal_defines-Don the command line["MRB_STACK_EXTEND_DOUBLING"]/DMRB_STACK_EXTEND_DOUBLING["MRB_NO_STDIO"]["MRB_STACK_EXTEND_DOUBLING"]/DMRB_NO_STDIO /DMRB_STACK_EXTEND_DOUBLINGMRB_NO_STDIOwas gone from the build, silently. Nothing in the tree is bittentoday:
build_config/ci/msvc.rband the other MSVC configurations callconf.toolchain :visualcppbefore they name a define, which is the one orderthat survives. The toolchain now writes a list no configuration writes, so the
order stops mattering.
has_define?Command::Compiler#has_define?answers from both lists, comparing the name andnot the value so a define carrying one (
FOO=1) still matches.mruby-compileris the one gem that has to read a build switch, and it reads it here:
It cannot ask
build.has_define?: that refuses to answer untildefines_final!, because a gem contributes its defines when its ownmrbgem.rake body runs, and this line runs during that pass. Asking the compiler
is the answer that does not depend on gem order, since the build wrote
MRB_DEBUGbefore any gem was set up. Without the change the test would readfalseunderconf.enable_debug,MRC_DEBUGwould go missing, andPRISM_BUILD_MINIMALwould stub outpm_prettyprint(), taking the AST dump ofmruby -vwith it.Build#has_define?coversinternal_definestoo, so a build switch staysvisible to a gem that asks about it from
spec.build_settings.Testing
rake -m test, all green:build_config/default.rbconf.enable_debugconf.enable_cxx_abiThe debug build's
-Dset is unchanged andMRC_DEBUGsurvives the move:The C++ ABI build compiles with
MRB_USE_CXX_EXCEPTION MRB_USE_CXX_ABIasbefore, and
mruby-compilerstill adds__STDC_LIMIT_MACROSand__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROSfrombuild.cxx_abi_enabled?.No test accompanies the change. The Rake build has no test harness of its own,
and the three builds above are what exercises the four moved sites.
