This option acts as +strictly a preference. If the preferred linking method is not successful, +then Meson will fallback and try the other linking method. Specifically +setting the `static` kwarg in the meson.build will take precedence over +the value of `prefer_static` for that specific `dependency` or +`find_library` call. |
