# 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.

## Meson Build Steps

Qt Creator builds Meson projects by running `ninja -v target`.

You can add arguments and targets for the build command in Build Steps.

The build errors and warnings are parsed and displayed in the Issues output pane.

## Meson Clean Steps

When building with Meson, you can add arguments and targets for the clean command in Clean Steps.

The build errors and warnings are parsed and displayed in the Issues output pane.
