Vscode-cmake-tools: User Feedback Survey

Created on 21 Feb 2017 · 10Comments · Source: microsoft/vscode-cmake-tools

Rather than figuring out how to insert telemetry or set up any fancy dashboards required for such things, I've created an informal, anonymous Google Forms survey.

The feedback collected therein will be used to steer future project changes.

IMPORTANT feedback wanted!

@mkotlyar, I've always wanted to be able to provide richer output than what is available in VSCode's current OutputChannel API. There are a few open feature requests on VSCode relating to this (#564, #571, and #11005). We'll have to see where they go.

I am happy so far, will let you know when I have something particular to say.
Keep doing the great job!

Yes, I do have a suggestion. It would be nice to have _colorful_ output from cmake in the OUTPUT window. With colors it is easier to perceive and analyze.

This is an awesome plugin! It works really well with vscode and makes the IDE so much more usable. Thanks you for this contribution!

When executing the command "CMake: Build a target", it would be nice to have a list of available targets displayed, such as when executing "CMake: Select a target to debug". Currently, "all" is default which may not exist (e.g. when using XCode generator), and the target must be manually entered.

Like the plugin.

You think it's possible to extract all include paths from a cmake project and use them for locating files in include statements?

@andyreimann, that's been brought up frequently. Even my own coworkers are hounding me about it. @maddouri has made an extension to do just that, and it may be merged into this codebase in the future.

I love the plugin. Great time saver. The only complaint is that I would like the debugger to allow for LLDB in Linux. When I tried to switch the 'MIMode' to 'lldb' it did not work stating '/usr/bin/lldb: unrecognized option '--interpreter=mi''.

I like it very much. Keep up the good work. Thanks for building such a good tool

@vector-of-bool If you still have a need for the survey, I would suggest placing the link in your README.md instead, since here it is pretty much invisible to most users.
I will close this one for now.
