Commit: fabdb6a30b49f79a7aba0f2ad9df9b399473380f

Remote server info

Linux amax 5.15.0-69-generic #76~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 20 15:54:19 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Extensions on remote server

I tried

1. v1.15.31
2. v1.18.42
3. v1.19.52 (latest)

Short summary

After using vcpkg and presets.json, the original system using CMakeLists failed to work using extension buttons.

Previsouly I could choose the debug/launch/build target simply by selecting from a quick list for all targets CMake Tools is aware of that can be built. But now, all the version of extensions mentioned above failed to work.

A quick list is like image.

Issue list

The last 3 captures I attached are using "v1.19.52"

1st issue: now no matter the status bar button or the sidebar button, no one shows the target quick list!

2nd issue: failed to debug even if I manually typed the target name and then click "debug"!

Failed to prepare executable target with name "undefined"

3rd issue: nothing is shown after I click the "launch" even if I typed the target name! Nothing!

@yszhou2019 Thank you for your github issue! We're not sure if we reproduced your problem, could you watch it based on the video below. Thank you!

Hey @Yingzi1234 thanks for your reply! Hoping you have a happy new year.

Just like I mentioned in summary, I'm using a linux server plus with vcpkg (a handy cpp lib manager by Microsoft). You need to download CMake Tools==v1.19.52 and latest vcpkg on a Linux server.

The erorr you encoutered, probably is due to MSCV compiler.

@yszhou2019 Do these issues reproduce in the most recent pre-release version?

[yszhou2019]

@gcampbell-msft Yes, I'm using the version published yesterday, which is v1.20.34 (pre-release).

Here is the screen recording. As you can see, I typed the target I want to run instead of selecting from a list. But even after that, "run" or "debug" button still doesn't work.

[Yingzi1234]

@yszhou2019 Thank you for your help! We can reproduce this issue based the above information. We have been changed this issue to bug, please be patient with the results of our investigation and we will notify you of any updates as soon as they are available!

@gcampbell-msft We can reproduce the issue on latest CMake Tools version 1.20.33(pre-release) and change the Label to ‘Bug’ for now, if it is wrong could you please change it to the correct label, the reproduction steps are detailed below. Thanks!

ENV:
