meson build - Link static library to shared library or to a binary -

i have static library project a (let's call liba.so) , want compile shared library in project b (let's call libb.so) , embed liba.so in it.

also, have binary in project b depends on liba.so, want embed in binary.

is possible? how?

when separate code base

what build , install project a. create dependency on project in project b's definition.

that looks this:

a_dep = dependency('a', version : '>=1.2.8')     lib_b = shared_library('proj_b', sources: 'prog_b.c', dependencies : a_dep) 

the version section in dependency optional.

when in same meson project b

when , b in same meson project, it's little uglier. have declare dependency anchor in a.

that looks this:

incdirs = include_directories('include') lib_a = static_library('a', 'proj_a.c', include_directories : indirs)  liba_dependency = declare_dependency(    include_directories : incdirs,    link_with : lib_a,    sources : ['proj_a.c']) 

then project b becomes:

lib_b = shared_library('proj_b', sources: 'prog_b.c', dependencies : lib_a)
