When `rake -m` and so on are used to build in parallel, building may be
started before presym files are generated. Then, for example, the following
error occurs and this issue is fixed.
```console
In file included from /Users/shuujii/mruby/mruby/include/mruby.h:92:
/mruby/mruby/include/mruby/presym.h:16:10: fatal error: '../build/presym.inc' file not found
#include <../build/presym.inc>
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
```
* In explanation of mruby, the expression `build_config.rb` is frequently
used including official documents, so I think that it will not make sense
if the file is no longer used.
* The `MRUBY_TARGET` mechanism seems to have little improvement, so I don't
think it should be changed to avoid unnecessary confusion.
* `MRUBY_TARGET` and `MRuby.targets` represent somewhat different things,
so using the same term "target" is a bit confusing.
The mechanism that can be written short when using a file under
`build_config` (renamed from `target`) directory remains
(`build_config/${MRUBY_CONFIG}.rb` is used if the path specified
in `MRUBY_CONFIG` doesn't exist).
Files under `test/t` and `mrbgem/*/test` are for tests, not for actual
execution. So symbols in those files need not to be pre-allocated. This
change slightly reduce the memory consumption.
Where `QSYM` means quoted symbols, which cannot be represented C
symbols, so specify aliases instead.
- operators: name of the operation, e.g. add for `+`
- predicates: add `_p` suffix instead of `?`
- bang methods: add `_b` suffix instead of `!`
- instance variables: add `a_` prefix instead of `@`
- global variables: add `d_` prefix instead of `@`
- class variables: unsupported; don't use them
You have to specify `TARGET` to specify a configuration, e.g.
```
rake TARGET=host-debug all test
```
When you port `mruby` to a new configuration:
1. copy an existing configuration under `target` directory
2. modify the new configuration file
3. build using the new configuration
4. send PR if you please
- Defer YAML library and lock file loading until needed.
- Don't write empty parts into lock file.
- Extract code to read/write lock file to `MRuby::Lockfile`.
- `MRuby::Lockfile.disable` disables the use of lock file.
