Re: [Meson-devel] Meson can now compile Qt Creator

[james <ja...@ma...>]

Does this mean that meson will gain understanding of code generation 
chains, with moc?

The one that interests me happens to be:

IDL file (containing ODL) (tool: midl)
  -> TLB file (referenced from RC file, tool: rc)
   -> RES file (tool: cvtres)
    -> OBJ file

which is a chain used in building COM DLLs.

Ideally I'd like a build system that will build for 32 and 64 bit 
targets at the same time.

There are other use cases I'm interested in too, where we 
compile-the-compiler and then run it (typically to generate code from a 
DSL).  Do you build the moc compiler as part of this?
