sdk config of includedirs

[shaqtsui]

Xmake Version

2.7.6

Operating System Version and Architecture

Ubuntu 20.04

Describe Bug

Currently sdk manual config only support includedirs. As this is sdk level config, I think it makes more sense to have sysincludedirs instead of includedirs. Correct me if I am wrong here.
If above declaration make sense. Can we have sysincludedirs supported?

The same for syslinks.

Expected Behavior

Suppport set_config("sysincludedirs", sys_include_path)

Project Configuration

N.A.

add_includedirs/add_sysincludedirs

I know add_includedirs/add_sysincludedirs, but I think this is target(project?) level.

[waruqi]

if you set it in target scope, it's target level.
if you set it in root scope, it's project level for all targets

?So add_includedirs is duplicated with set_config("includedirs", "xx") ?

no, set_config("includedirs", "xx") is equivalent to xmake f --includedirs=xx and although it also sets includedirs globally, if you configure it in xmake.lua, you should use add_includedirs whenever possible

[shaqtsui]

I am a bit confused. Correct me if I am wrong:
1, xmake support multiple config levels.
2, --includedirs or set_config() is sdk level
3, add_includedirs is project level when put under project
4, add_includedirs is target level when put under target

My understanding is that sdk level supposed to be system include, while project/target level config supposed to be user include.

• user cli configs (options, --includedirs, set_config())
• platform/toolchains level
  • project level, add_includeidirs (root scope in xmake.lua)
    • target level, add_includeidirs (target scope in xmake.lua)
