Issue created Mar 20, 2015 by Kitware Robot@kwrobotOwner

Provide a machine readable way to determine the available generators and other capabilities of the binary

This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.


As per this thread providing some easily parsed way of determining the available generators for IDEs would be useful. For example, cmake -E capabilities might produce:

 {
   "generators": [
     {
       "name": "Unix Makefiles",
       "multiconfig": false,
       "recursive": true,
       "extraGenerators": ["Sublime", "CodeBlocks"]
     },
     {
       "name": "Ninja",
       "multiconfig": false,
       "recursive": false,
       "extraGenerators": ["Sublime", "CodeBlocks"]
     },
     {
       "name": "Xcode"
       "multiconfig": true,
       ...
     }
     ...
  ],
  "daemon": {
    "protocolVersions": ["3.5", "3.6"]
  }
 }
To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
