Meson Build Configuration
Settings are grouped by category by Meson. All items are user modifiable except backend
which is forced to Ninja, buildtype
, debug
as well as optimization
to ensure a good compatibility with Qt Creator.
Each setting type has its own editor. To modif any setting, double-click it, either edit the field, or select your choice depending on the control. To apply changes, select Apply configuration changes. This will trigger a meson configure
command if there were any configuration changes. If for any reason the build directory configuration is broken, select Wipe project. This should fix any build directory.
Note: Any modified setting will remain in bold until Apply configuration changes is selected.
For more information about using Meson, see Setting Up Meson.
