I'm not sure. The evaluation depends on whether we think of multiplex
rules whose output artifact has a fixed name, but is not a product
target artifact, as exotic or not. You might want to file a suggestion
in JIRA about making user-provided rule properties available at rule
execution time.
Meanwhile, here's another idea for your concrete use case: Let the
product provide a mapping between file tags and output file names:
Product {
property var tagMap: ({ qm: "translations", assets: "assets", /*
... */})
// ...
}
Rule {
Artifact {
filePath: product.tagMap[Object.keys(inputs)[0]] + ".qrc"
fileTags: "qrc"
}
// ...
}
Ths should be exactly what you want, I think.
