Use this skill when the user wants to build their plugin project using CMake.
/setup-depscd [ProjectFolder]
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
cmake --build .
| Generator | Command | Platform | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ninja | -G Ninja | macOS, Windows | Fast, recommended |
| Xcode | -G Xcode | macOS, iOS, visionOS | Multi-config, good for debugging |
| Visual Studio | -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 | Windows | Multi-config |
Configure (choose one):
cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. # Ninja
cmake -G Xcode .. # Xcode
cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 .. # VS 2022
Build all targets:
cmake --build . --config Release
Build specific target:
cmake --build . --config Release --target [PluginName]-vst3
| Format | Target Suffix |
|---|---|
| Standalone App | -app |
| VST2 | -vst2 |
| VST3 | -vst3 |
| CLAP | -clap |
| AAX | -aax |
| AUv2 | -au |
