You can enable it in Tools > Options > CMake > General:Р”В¬lose and reopen the folder in Visual Studio to activate the integration. Enable CMakePresets.json integration in Visual StudioР”В¬MakePresets.json integration isn't enabled by default in Visual Studio. We recommend using CMake version 3.14 or later.

So, CMake version 3.20 or later isn't strictly required when you're building with CMakePresets.json inside Visual Studio. However, Visual Studio reads and evaluates CMakePresets.json and CMakeUserPresets.json itself and doesn't invoke CMake directly with the -preset option. For an example and more information, see CMakePresets.json format.Р”В¬Make version 3.20 or later is required when you're invoking CMake with CMakePresets.json (version 2 or later) from the command line.

#CMAKE INSTALL() UPDATE#

You can update your file version by incrementing the version field in the root object. Visual Studio supports version 2 or later for the CMakePresets.json and CMakeUserPresets.json files. Supported CMake and CMakePresets.json versions To enable or disable CMakePresets.json integration in Visual Studio, see Enable CMakePresets.json in Visual Studio 2019. Visual Studio never reads from both CMakePresets.json and CMakeSettings.json at the same time. We recommend CMakePresets.json as an alternative to CMakeSettings.json.

For more information about the Microsoft vendor maps and macro expansion, see CMakePresets.json and CMakeUserPresets.json Microsoft vendor maps.

For more information about the format of CMakePresets.json, see the official CMake documentation.

This article contains information about CMakePresets.json integration with Visual Studio.

Both files are supported in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.10 or later. CMakeUserPresets.json is for developers to save their own local builds. Use these files to drive CMake in Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code, in a continuous integration (CI) pipeline, and from the command line.Р”В¬MakePresets.json is for saving project-wide builds. CMake supports two files that allow users to specify common configure, build, and test options and share them with others: CMakePresets.json and CMakeUserPresets.json.
