@codebrainz I simply wanted to have a single meson.build where the import stuff is in. data, icons, po etc is rarely touched and can be in a separate meson.build so they don't create too much noise. But for the main build system work I don't want to constantly jump between build files.
Not putting meson.build into imported code was only a minor aspect but it's another advantage. > Don't build all the things into helper static libs (Scintilla, Ctags, etc) > which are not distributed and only used to build the shared libgeany.

Stuffing everything into one `shared_library` declaration (even mixed C/C++) can possibly be done but has no real advantage. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
