Re: [CMake] Generator for Visual Studio Code (Ubuntu)

You may also find this article useful, it seems to explain how to configure the 
JSON files you need to for more complicated build systems:

They were writing for Linux / OS X, and you’ll see that they’re just using 
cmake -G 'Unix Makefiles’ in their tasks.json.

Yes.

If you have read the vscode-cmake extension docs
https://vector-of-bool.github.io/,
you would have seen that there is no generator required, you can choose.

Consider another example:
if you use Visual Studio 2017 with its CMake integration [1],
you don't have to limit yourself to VisualStudio/MSBuild generator just becasue
you use CMake inside Visual Studio. You can use Ninja too.

FWIW, there no such thing as CMake generator for "Visual Studio Code".
VSCode is generator-agnostic.
For current list of generators, refer to the CMake docs.

Yes I have that plugin. But for more complex build systems that build multiple 
products, running CMake from a shell script, I wondered what generator would be 
used,

Re: [CMake] Generator for Visual Studio Code (Ubuntu)

Hm, I’m not sure what you mean by built in support, but there is an excellent 
plugin you should install: 
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vector-of-bool.cmake-tools



It gives you easy interface extensions for building, debugging, or testing your 
project. You shouldn’t need to use a specific Generator – by default CMake 
Tools will use the default generator (I think). So Makefiles should be fine.



Is that what you were looking for?
