If we consider that too much magic, I would suggest: generated_headers = [] builtin_sources += custom_target( output: 'config-list.h', command: [ shell, meson.current_source_dir() + '/generate-configlist.sh', meson.current_source_dir(), '@OUTPUT@', ], env: script_environment, ) generated_headers += 'config-list.h' I hope this would reduce the chance to forget to add more headers to this list (assuming people copy the code blurb from another location). -- Toon
