[SOLVED] Visual Studio Code syntax highlighting for CMakeLists.txt

Issue

I am using ROS and C++ and ROS packages have a CMakeLists.txt in them. I would like to have a syntax highlighting for CMakeLists.txt in visual studio code.

Unfortunately, I searched on the internet but I can't find how to do this.

Could you help me?

Solution

Below is how to do it. It is quite straightforward (with an extension):

1. Open Visual Studio Code
2. CTRL+P - Launch VS Code Quick Open
3. ext install twxs.cmake - Install the extension "CMake For VisualStudio Code"

I hope this will help someone else.

p.s. It is always like that. I search for a long time, I don't find an answer. Then I post the question here and I immediately find the answer.
