Hi guys. Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but there is a typo in extension description: "CMake langage support for Visual Studio Code".

Hi, guys. There is an issue with CMake. When I run CMake: Configure I get the following error: Bad CMake executable "". Is it installed or settings contain the correct path (cmake.cmakePath)?
Actually the problem seems to be with the CMake Tools extension, but if anyone knows how to solve it, please share your ideas.

greetings all

someone here ?

yes

Great! I wanted to ask a question concerning this extension

I've installed it and somehow it cannot parse .cmake script files

Nicolas

@twxs

if it was installed, it should parse .cmake and CMakelists.txt files

the association is defined in the extension, may be there is a thiord extension that is associated with .cmake

al-sabr

@al-sabr

this is what I have installed

Nicolas

@twxs

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/overview#_language-id

you shoulb be able to change the cmake association

@al-sabr

thanx

@al-sabr

Greetings again

I would like to know how can I debug CMake file?

Nicolas

@twxs

my extension doesn't provide debug features

al-sabr

@al-sabr

that would be a good feature cause cmaker server runs now

Would it be possible to add support for .cmake.in files as well. I am dealing with a project where these files are used as a template to make .cmake files, and the syntax follows normal cmake convension

It would be great to have an option to disable auto generate on save!

I have downloaded the CMake extension, however, it usually shows "The "cmake" command is not found in PATH. Install it or use cmake.cmakePath in the workspace settings to define the CMake executable binary."

But I have cmake installed on WSL already. How to fix this problem ?

I do not need to run Cmake within vscode. Can I close that warning?

Nicolas

@twxs

May be you can try to

hnxyxiaomeng

@hnxyxiaomeng

try what?

Nicolas

@twxs

try "cmake.cmakePath": "wsl.exe /usr/bin/cmake"

I'm not currently on Windows

if it doesn't work a .bat with wsl.exe /usr/bin/cmake %*should do the trick

hnxyxiaomeng

@hnxyxiaomeng

the first method seems work ! thank you ,bro!

Nicolas

@twxs

nice !

Intellisense isn't working, my cmake.cmakePath is correct

strangely, syntax highlighting is working

when I do add_executabl() its just white, but when I change it to add_executable() it colors it

Hi folks, is anyone having issues with intellisense on CMakeLists file? Syntax highlighting works fine but no suggestions show up

@theycallmevirgo

Sorry, "stupid" question, is this vastly different from the official m$ extension? Does it make any sense to use both?

Hello! I'm facing following problem: cmake always configurate project with debug type adding this to the end of cmake arguments:
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug

I was trying to add build type to "cmake.configureArgs" like that:

"cmake.configureArgs": [
        "-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release"]

but still couldn't configurate project as release.

Could you please help me to configurate my project with type=release? I didn't find any options in settings
