+# Can index CustomTaget objects
+
+The `CustomTarget` object can now be indexed like an array. The resulting
+object can be used as a source file for other Targets, this will create a
+dependency on the original `CustomTarget`, but will only insert the generated
+file corresponding to the index value of the `CustomTarget`'s `output` keyword.
+
+ c = CustomTarget(
+ ...
+ output : ['out.h', 'out.c'],
+ )
+ lib1 = static_library(
+ 'lib1',
+ [lib1_sources, c[0]],
+ ...
+ )
+ exec = executable(
+ 'executable',
+ c[1],
+ link_with : lib1,
+ )
