No worries! I appreciate the information. I'm currently focusing on improving the CMake side, so I’ll probably stick with that for now. But it’s good to know that there's an alternative approach with Meson. Btw, there is actually a cmake variable BUILD_SHARED_LIBS <https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/BUILD_SHARED_LIBS.html>, which has a similar effect.
