The best way to use installed libraries with cmake is via the toolchain file `scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake`. To use this file, you simply need to add it onto your CMake command line as `-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=D:\src\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake`.
Let's first make a simple CMake project with a main file.
Alternatively, if you are using CMake through Open Folder with Visual Studio 2017 you can define `CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE` by adding a `variables` section to your `CMakeSettings.json` configurations:
```json
{
"configurations": [
{
"name": "x86-Debug",
"generator": "Visual Studio 15 2017",
"configurationType" : "Debug",
"buildRoot": "${env.LOCALAPPDATA}\\CMakeBuild\\${workspaceHash}\\build\\${name}",
"cmakeCommandArgs": "",
"buildCommandArgs": "-m -v:minimal"
"variables": [
{
"name": "CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE",
"value": "D:\\src\\vcpkg\\scripts\\buildsystems\\vcpkg.cmake"
}
]
},
// also add it to the other configurations...
]
}
```
Now let's make a simple CMake project with a main file.
```cmake
# CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0)
