I have a project that uses CMake, and I used Visual Studio 2022 to build it remotely on a Linux VM.
Now, when trying to debug, it starts up, but I can't find where is the option to specify the command line args and directory for the debugged process.
The documentation and examples I managed to find are only for vcxproj/sln built for Linux, but not for a CMake project. Some examples mention launch.vs.json, but I couldn't figure out to set it up for my case.
Where's that option?
In Visual Studio 2022, click DEBUG -> Debug and Launch Settings for [PROJECT_NAME]. This should open an editable launch.vs.json file (located in the .vs folder in your CMake root folder) that includes "args" and "cwd" keys.

I've got a problem with Visual Studio console application created in Ubuntu 15.04. When I try to run c# program in Visual Studio in Windows 10 I get an error "visual project does not contail any commands in project.json and cannot be start". How to fix that?
I have only json file but I don't have any sln and csproj.
The easiest solution: create new, empty console app and paste content (.cs) files from linux repo to it. Build and compile.
Remember to resolve conflicts which may occur (libs used in linux environment may be problematic in windows).
I'm struggling with the step from the official documentation
Extract it into a nice and short named directory like D:/OpenCV/dep/qt/ . Then you need to build it. Start up a Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010) by using the start menu search (or navigate through the start menu All Programs ‣ Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 ‣ Visual Studio Tools ‣ Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010)).
The Visual Studio command prompt
Now navigate to the extracted folder and enter inside it by using this console window. You should have a folder containing files like Install, Make and so on. Use the dir command to list files inside your current directory. Once arrived at this directory enter the following command:
configure.exe -release -no-webkit -no-phonon -no-phonon-backend -no-script -no-scripttools
-no-qt3support -no-multimedia -no-ltcg
...
My issue is that in this document Qt 4.7.3 was used, now, I dont know about that version because I wasn't able to find it but in the newer one there is not Install, Make files...
which ones should I use instead?
does anyone has any step for more recent version of Qt and VS that I can follow to get this done
I turns out I wasn't using the source file, which you can find here found the folder which contains the configuration and INTALLS files on the new version in a folder called qtbase continued with the steps from there on the OPENCV guide and everything worked alright on MSVS2012
I'm trying to compile some netmf firmware using MSBUILD with Yagarto. I'm doing it on a machine with VS2012 and all the right pre-requisites installed. From a command prompt as administrator, I go to the NetMF Porting Kit folder, where all the source code lives, I call setenv_gcc.cmd 4.6.0 c:\yagarto46
Doing so yields two warnings:
WARNING: Count not find vsvars32.bat
WARNING: VISUAL C++ DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE
INSTALLED ON THIS MACHINE.
When I try the above command from VS2012 Developer Command Prompt as Administrator I get the following ERROR
ERROR: Cannot determine the location of the VS Common Tools folder.
I've done the path modifications in Environment System Variables with no luck.
Thanks!
VS2010 command prompt gives error : Cannot determine the location of the VS Common Tools folder
I modified the vsvars32.bat file in the vs11 and vs10 folders accordingly and the error went away... Now onto eliminating my build errors....
This is a pretty novice question, but I've been trying to build and run Ghostscript using Visual Studio 2012. When I try to do "Start Debugging" or "Start Without Debugging" the project builds fine, but then I get the error "Unable to start program 'C:...\ghostscript-9.07\debugobj\ghostscript.exe"
The project never outputs a ghostscript.exe file when compiled. It outputs "gswin32.exe" in the debugbuild directory, which is the file I need to run after compilation. I think Visual Studio is looking for debugobj\ghostscript.exe because the project is named "ghostscript" and debugobj is configured as the output directory.
Is there some kind of configuration setting I can set to specify that debugbuild\gswin32.exe is the executable that should be run after building?
Thanks.
Yes there is. From the Project menu go into Properties and review the settings in the Debug section.
I'm trying to start a C++ Qt application and have it run and compile in Visual Studio 2010.
Doing some googling, I found that there was a Visual Studio Qt Add-in, and so I installed this. I already had a MinGW Qt binary installed, and when this did not work, I found that you have to compile the source for Visual Studio 2010 (the VS 2008 binary will cause deployment issues).
Using this as a guide: How to build Qt for Visual Studio 2010, I compiled the open source version, and added it to the PATH, along with a QTDIR env variable. Hoping that I got it finally working, I created a "Qt Application" using the New Project Wizard in Visual Studio 2010. Once I finished, I tried to build the program, only to see the following error:
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'qtmaind.lib'
I looked in the C:\QT\lib folder, and found that I only have a qtmaind.prl, but no clue as to why there is no qtmaind.lib.
I am able to echo the QMAKESPEC environmental variable to get a 'win32-msvc2010' output.
I've tried several different combinations of flags for the configure step, including the one in the link, and even tried manually setting the -platform flag.
If anyone can offer any help, it would be greatly appreciated! :D
Just ran across this same problem. I changed the "-release" flag from the linked guide to "-debug-and-release", and then it built the qtmaind.lib library (presumably, that "d" suffix stands for debug).
I encountered this issue when running a project whose settings were hardcoded for a particular machine setup.
I could see that the vcxproj file had something like:
C:\Qt\4.8.1\libqtmaind.lib
I could not find this lib file in my machine. I replaced the line by:
C:\Qt\4.7.3\lib\Qtmaind.lib
It looks like the names of library files are different across Qt versions.Or, maybe the library files were renamed.
Also, the 'd' denoted debug. If you cannot find any lib file post-fixed by 'd', it is likely that you did not 'make' a debug version of Qt.
You can cross check this by opening the .Sln file created by configure. Mine was named Projects.sln. You can open this in notepad and see if win32-debug configurations are present.
This might be a QMAKESPEC issue. Try setting your QMAKESPEC environment variable to
win32-msvc2010
and rebuild Qt like that. This should give you .lib files in your Qt folder
in QT 5.3 with vs 2013
in properties -> linker -> input
remove ANY path for qt libraries such qtmaind.lib
this is known BUG
