CMAKE-GUI(1) CMake CMAKE-GUI(1) NAME cmake-gui - CMake GUI Command-Line Reference SYNOPSIS cmake-gui [<options>] cmake-gui [<options>] -B <path-to-build> [-S <path-to-source>] cmake-gui [<options>] <path-to-source | path-to-existing-build> cmake-gui [<options>] --browse-manual [<filename>] DESCRIPTION The cmake-gui executable is the CMake GUI. Project configuration settings may be specified interactively. Brief instructions are provided at the bottom of the window when the program is running. CMake is a cross-platform build system generator.

Users build a project by using CMake to generate a build system for a native tool on their platform. OPTIONS -S <path-to-source> Path to root directory of the CMake project to build. -B <path-to-build> Path to directory which CMake will use as the root of build direc- tory. If the directory doesn't already exist CMake will make it. --preset=<preset-name> Name of the preset to use from the project's presets files, if it has them. --browse-manual [<filename>] Open the CMake reference manual in a browser and immediately exit.
