My GHS MULTI project builds and compiles fine in GHS. I’m able to setup my cmake project without errors using:

> cmake -G “Green Hills MULTI” -A arm64 -T c:\ghs\comp\_202214 -D GHS\_OS\_DIR=…/int1179teledyne -D GHS\_BSP\_NAME=devtree-arm64 …

but my builds fail when compiling after that because it’s not picking up the C++11 standard.

I’ve tried

> set(CMAKE\_CXX\_STANDARD 11)  
> set(CMAKE\_CXX\_STANDARD\_REQUIRED ON)

but that doesn’t take.

My .gpj files have

> #!gbuild  
> #component integrity\_virtual\_address\_space  
> [Program]  
> -livfs  
> –c++11

but that language standard option doesn’t seem to get picked up anywhere.

Any idea what I’m missing?

That hasn’t been implemented. You can specify the option using `target_compile_options()`.
