Then I recommend you install cmake for Windows. Then install the C++ extensions for VSCode. These instructions are very detailed:Īnother alternative that I recommend is to use Windows WSL which is like a Linux inside Windows. Now you should see a file created, containing the following content.If you are going to edit and execute on Windows, you have to install either Visual Studio regardless or g++ under MinGW. So, close the C++ and press the shortcut again Note: If you press the shortcut while a C++ file is open, you will see VSCode's default C++ build tasks. After pressing the button you should see the following. It runs the build task, but as we don't have any yet it will ask us to set up a build task. The easiest way to set up tasks is to press ctrl+shift+b. With this, we can map VSCode's build keyboard shortcut to task by making it of type build. For this, we will be using VSCode's task runner.
It is still a pain to open a terminal and type make to build our code. We don't have to write the whole command each time.įull explanation of this can be found here. Now, in the output, we will say the exact command that we would have run if we weren't using make. You can run the following command in the terminal if you using Ubuntu.Įnter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode I will be using GNU Compiler Collection so to install gcc, g++, gdb, and make. For macOS, for the most part, It will be the same excluding the installing compiler part. I will be using Linux Operating System If you are on Windows try this tutorial. Visual Studio Code (you can get it here).Setting up Makefile and adding C++ files.Installing VSCode and C++ Extension for VSCode.Installing c++ compiler and build-tools.So here are all the things I have collected from the Internet. I'm writing this tutorial because I didn't find tutorials with full information in a single place. In this article, I will show how to set up C++ Compiler with Visual Studio Code. It's also used in making games with the Unreal engine. C++ is a statically-typed general-purpose language middle-level programming language and superset of the C programming language used everywhere but mainly in systems programming and embedded systems.
