# whether to build with support for x11 hooked overlays
# disabled by default on windows
# even when this is false, allows to create overlays via the API or
# use vil in a separate window on x11
option('x11-hook', type: 'boolean', value: true)

# whether to build the example
option('example', type: 'boolean', value: false)

# whether to build the tests
# NOTE: due to technical reasons, the tests are compiled into the layer 
# library itself. Disabling this should slightly decrease the size of the library
option('unit-tests', type: 'boolean', value: false)
option('integration-tests', type: 'boolean', value: false)

# whether to build with tracy for profiling
# will make the layer less lightweight and add potential error points
option('tracy', type: 'boolean', value: false)

# Whether to build the standlone application (just an image viewer atm).
# Setting this to false makes the layer a bit more lightweight.
option('with-standalone', type: 'boolean', value: true)

# Enable support for callstack capturing (still WIP)
# Disabling this makes the layer a bit more lightweight.
option('with-callstacks', type: 'boolean', value: true)

# whether creating a window is supported
# on linux, if this and x11-hook is false, a lot of dependencies
# are removed from the layer
option('window', type: 'boolean', value: true)

# use libdw if possible for callstacks (only on unix)
# irrelevant if callstacks are disabled
option('libdw', type: 'boolean', value: true)

# whether to use the absolute build path in the layer json
# useful e.g. to run the integration tests without installing, as we
# do in ci
option('json-config-absolute-path', type: 'boolean', value: false)

# Whether to throw on failed assertion.
# Mainly used for static analysis, to make it assume the conditions
# we assert on.
option('throw-on-assert', type: 'boolean', value: false)
