Hi there, it’s been a long time since our last exchange.
As advised earlier, I’ve been working on a dedicated CMake fork for this project whose aim is to provide support for the not-dead-yet Atmel Studio 7 IDE (which has been rebranded to Microchip Studio 7, still receiving support from former Atmel and Microchip companies!).
I am glad to share with you this new generator implementation, which is available for Windows X64 platforms.
You’ll find release for this fork at bebenlebricolo/CMake-AtmelStudio7-compatibility with a working release (3.19.3) based on the latest release of CMake mainstream project.
At the moment, AVR GCC 8 bit projects are supported (C language), with all the good stuff CMake provides such as out of source build, project linking.
AVR-GCC C++ needs a bit more code (especially in CMake Modules/scripts) in the aim to support C++ language for AVR 8 cores.
As usual with this kind of development projects, there is still a lot of work to be done in the aim to enable support for AVR 32 cores and ARM cores, however I tried to provide a solid backbone to support further developments.
Many thanks to the CMake community and development teams.
