Visual Studio uses a CMake configuration file to drive CMake cache generation and build. For more information on CMake language services provided by Visual Studio, see Editing CMakeLists.txt files. You can specify source files, find libraries, set compiler and linker options, and specify other build system-related information. Use the CMakeLists.txt file in each project folder just as you would in any CMake project. Choose Targets view from the dropdown in the Solution Explorer toolbar:Д¬hoose the Show All Files button at the top of Solution Explorer to see all the CMake-generated output in the out/build/ folders. Once CMake cache generation has succeeded, you can also view your projects organized logically by targets. For more information, see CMake partial activation.

Starting in Visual Studio 2022 version 17.1 Preview 2, if your folder doesn't contain a root CMakeLists.txt you'll be prompted whether you'd like to enable CMake integration or not. As you work, Visual Studio monitors changes in the editor and also on disk to keep its index in sync with the sources.

In the background, Visual Studio starts to index the source files to enable IntelliSense, browsing information, refactoring, and so on. The CMake command line is displayed in the Output Window, along with other output from CMake. Visual Studio runs CMake and generates the CMake cache file ( CMakeCache.txt) for the default configuration. The Solution Explorer displays the folder structure and files. Visual Studio adds CMake items to the Project menu, with commands for viewing and editing CMake scripts. When you open a folder containing a CMakeLists.txt file, the following things happen.

Both C++ CMake tools for Windows and Linux Development with C++ are required for cross-platform CMake development.ДЇor more information, see Install the C++ Linux workload in Visual Studio. InstallationД¬++ CMake tools for Windows is installed as part of the Desktop development with C++ and Linux Development with C++ workloads. cmake.exe is invoked directly by Visual Studio for CMake configuration and build. CMake project files (such as CMakeLists.txt) are consumed directly by Visual Studio for the purposes of IntelliSense and browsing. Visual Studio's native support for CMake enables you to edit, build, and debug CMake projects on Windows, the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), and remote systems from the same instance of Visual Studio.
