+## `dep.as_link_whole()`
+
+Dependencies created with `declare_dependency()` now has new method `as_link_whole()`.
+It returns a copy of the dependency object with all link_with arguments changed
+to link_whole. This is useful for example for fallback dependency from a
+subproject built with `default_library=static`.
+
+```meson
+somelib = static_library('somelib', ...)
+dep = declare_dependency(..., link_with: somelib)
+library('someotherlib', ..., dependencies: dep.as_link_whole())
+```
