How to enable the address sanitizer on debug builds

[janvhs]

Hey, I want to enable the sanitizers in debug only. How would I acchive this? The method I tried doesn't work and I can't find any references in the manual or online.

This is what I am trying to do:

project(
  'Foo',
  'c',
  version: '0.0.1',
  license: 'GPL-3.0-or-later',
  meson_version: '>= 0.64.0',
  default_options: [
      'c_std=c2x',
      'warning_level=everything',
  ],
)

# This is the relevant part

if get_option('buildtype').startswith('debug')
  message('Building a debug release')
  add_project_arguments('b_sanitize=address,undefined', language: 'c')
else
  add_project_arguments(['werror=true'], language: 'c')
endif

ce_sources = file('src/main.c')

executable(
  meson.project_name().to_lower(),
  ce_sources,
)

Meson tries to add it as a link argument
