Package with only include_dirs doesn't work about bender HOT 4 OPEN

I think you may be looking for the export_include_dirs functionality.

from bender.

Thanks for the hint, but unfortunately doesn't make a difference.

Using this Bender file:

sources:
  export_include_dirs:
    - rtl

  files:

Then running 'bender script flist' it returns an empty string.

You may want to try the flist-plus script format, which also adds plusargs: +incdir+ and +define+. The flist script type only returns files.

Investigating another issue, I found a problem when defining a bender dependency with no source files. I adjusted bender's script export in #167 to keep sourcegroups with no sourcefiles, resulting in a proper export of include directories when no source files are found. I don't know, however, if this is reasonable behavior, as include directories should only be necessary when compiling a source file, and blanket include directories can cause issues for some projects (which is why we can differentiate include directories for individual sourcegroups, although the flist format won't expose this).
