Don't see build commands in CMake folder view

[GeneM]

I’m trying to learn how to build CMake projects. The default Solution Explorer view seems to be the “MyProject.sln” view.  Everything works fine in this view.  Specifically, I get all the build commands in the Build drop down. However, I much prefer the “Folder View”.  Unfortunately, in Folder View I don’t see any of the build commands in the Build drop down .  I’ve tried this in a regular VS C++ console app project.  As long as I clock on the “Run Code Analysis on Solution” Build menu item, I can build in both the folder view and the ConoleApplication1.sln view.  I do get the “Run Code Analysis on Solution” Build menu item in my VisualGDB project (see attached screen shot) but it doesn’t seem to build the project.

This isn’t a show stopper but if there’s a way to work in folder view, that would be great.

Thanks

Hi,

The Folder View is implemented by Visual Studio itself and not VisualGDB. Hence, the advanced VisualGDB functionality (Advanced IntelliSense, non-intrusive debugging, custom steps/configurations) indeed won’t work in it.

OK, thanks.
