| CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR | |
| --------------------- | |
| The extra generator used to build the project. See | |
| :manual:`cmake-generators(7)`. | |
| When using the Eclipse, CodeBlocks, CodeLite, Kate or Sublime generators, CMake | |
| generates Makefiles (:variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR`) and additionally project | |
| files for the respective IDE. This IDE project file generator is stored in | |
| ``CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR`` (e.g. ``Eclipse CDT4``). |
