Re: [deal.II] Re: Error building with cmake on vscode

[Luca Heltai]

Cmake does not know where to find a correct version of deal.ii.  Are you trying to compile an example from the GitHub repository with an earlier release of deal.ii? If that’s the case, try removing the version from the find statement in the CMakeLists.txt. Otherwise you will have to instruct vscode where your library is installed. You can initiate cmake from the command line in the build directory manually, specifying the env variable DEAL_II_DIR. When a cmake cache is present, vscode uses it, and you may be able to get through.  Luca Il giorno 22 apr 2023, alle ore 20:18, Abbas <abbas.ballou...@gmail.com> ha scritto: Do you have the cmake extension installed in vscode?  If not give it a try Abbas On Saturday, April 22, 2023 at 1:44:41 PM UTC+2 vinay...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I am trying to build step-1 using cmake on vscode.

I am able to build using the terminal though. What changes do i need to make for building using vscode?
