Oops, I'm wrong here. Bo said to read the number from a file.
I don't think that changes anything though regarding dynamic build graph
being an advantage.
Sure?
It is trivial:

Clearly there is some kind of misunderstanding happening here. In
particular, when I said 'advantage' above, it means 'Qbs can do this
thing, but CMake can not'.
What about the (lack of) need for two rules to agree in advance about the
location of a generated file?
I don't know what you are talking about. I don't know what rules have to
'agree'.
Also, there could be several layers of indirection, with the second set of
generated files also containing meta data etc.
Please post example code for that. Feel free to start by forking my repo.
You quoted and challenged just one small part of my email. Can you
answer the rest of it? I want to understand Qbs and what it can do with
a dynamic build graph which CMake can't do. I made a guess in my email
in the hope that you would confirm that my assumption is correct, or
would correct my assumption to fill my understanding.
Thanks,
