Meson build system for zstandard
================================

Meson is a build system designed to optimize programmer productivity.
It aims to do this by providing simple, out-of-the-box support for
modern software development tools and practices, such as unit tests,
coverage reports, Valgrind, CCache and the like.

This Meson build system is provided with no guarantee and maintained
by Dima Krasner \<dima@dimakrasner.com\>.

It outputs one `libzstd`, either shared or static, depending on
`default_library` option.

## How to build

`cd` to this meson directory (`build/meson`)

```sh
meson setup -Dbin_programs=true -Dbin_contrib=true builddir
cd builddir
ninja             # to build
ninja install     # to install
```

You might want to install it in staging directory:

```sh
DESTDIR=./staging ninja install
```

To configure build options, use:

```sh
meson configure
```

See [man meson(1)](https://manpages.debian.org/testing/meson/meson.1.en.html).
