# CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR

The extra generator used to build the project. See `cmake-generators(7)`.

When using the Eclipse, CodeBlocks or KDevelop generators, CMake generates Makefiles (`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`).
