Hi Jonah,
I've looked a bit into supporting more build configurations in core.build.cmake.
I've resumed an old idea of having a file in the project contain this information and providing an editor to show the configuration UI, like in the attached screenshot.
Now I was wondering how to feed the configurations into core.build, but I'm a bit at a loss there.
From what I understood:
- core.build looks for the ICBuildConfiguration associated to the active IBuildconfiguration of the project (but there is no UI to select a build configuration)
- CMakeBuildConfigurationProvider creates configurations based on the triple project, buildType, toolchain
So the only foreseen use case for a different configuration would be a different toolchain, but not e.g. different options passed to CMake to support different target configurations.
Is it planned to add configuration selection in core.build UI or was it a design decision to remove it?
cheers
Fabrizio
