The VC++ Directories page provides options for controlling IntelliSense by providing additional directories to include or exclude.The Debugging page provides additional control over execution for example, you can run additional commands before launching a program such as exporting the display to debug desktop apps.The General property page allows you to set options like what folders to use on the remote system and what the Configuration Type is for your output (an executable, static or dynamic library).Right click on the project in Solution Explorer and choose Properties.

The project system synchronizes your sources between Windows and Linux, and provides you with extensive control to manage this yourself if you need it. If there are any problems, the build output points you directly to issues found in your code. Learn more about connecting to a remote Linux system in our documentation.Īfter you enter your information, Visual Studio manages the connection to your Linux system where builds are performed.

You can add new connections with either password or private key authentication. Select Tools > Options > Cross Platform > Connection Manager to open the Connection Manager. Now we can add a new remote connection to the Connection Manager. Check out this tutorial for more information on our native support for WSL. In this tutorial, I’ll use the GCC for Remote Linux toolset. The “Windows Subsystem for Linux” toolsets use Visual Studio’s native support for WSL and do not require SSH. The “Remote Linux” toolsets require a SSH connection in the Connection Manager. Select the toolset that matches your compilers and Linux environment and press OK. There are four platform toolsets to choose from: GCC for Remote Linux, Clang for Remote Linux, GCC for Windows Subsystem for Linux, and Clang for Windows Subsystem for Linux. Right-click on the project in the Solution Explorer and select Properties. We will first select the project’s platform toolset. This project will open a readme with some instructions about its capabilities. To create a new MSBuild-based Linux Console Application in Visual Studio, filter the language to C++, the platform to Linux, and select “Console Application”. Learn more about options for creating a Linux environment in our documentation. Start SSH with the following command: sudo service start ssh

Sudo apt install -y build-essential gdb rsync zip openssh-server

In a Debian-based Linux environment, this is as easy as: sudo apt update You can use any Linux distribution that has SSH, gdb, rsync, zip, and a compiler (clang or GCC) installed. You will need a Linux machine, or you can use the Windows Subsystem for Linux. Learn more about installing the Linux development with C++ workload in our documentation. The workload installs in under 10 minutes.

Under the section “Other Toolsets” you will find Linux Development with C++. To install it, start the Visual Studio installer and choose to either install or modify an existing installation. Visual Studio 20 include the C/C++ Linux Development workload. Install Workload for Linux development with C++ If you are new to using Visual Studio for C++ development, a great starting point is our guide to Getting Started with Visual Studio.

You can learn more about CMake projects in our documentation and on our C++ Team Blog. Visual Studio’s CMake support allows you to target multiple platforms (Windows, a remote Linux system, the Windows Subsystem for Linux, embedded targets…) with a single CMake project. We generally recommend Visual Studio’s native support for CMake for all C++ Linux development.

Visual Studio 2017 introduced the Linux Development with C++ workload. This post was updated on December 11, 2020
