<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t know anything about the CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS feature, but I can attest that the UseLATEX commands are all created with add_custom_command (with some add_custom_target commands to set up the targets). Someone who knows the
CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS feature will have to answer whether it is possible to export custom commands.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="HU">I am trying to export a custom_command to the compile_commands.json database, but no luck up until now. The only similar question I found on the web is a Stackoverflow thread named „cmake clang-tidy (or other script) as
custom target”.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="HU">I am trying to bring together C/C++ compilation, GnuPlot and LaTeX into a single Cmake script (done), and have the relevant Visual Studio Code extensions hook into the compile_commands.json file to recognize CMakes machinery
and that they themselves are not responsible for kicking off the compilation of their respective source files. Microsofts C++ extension is compile_commands.json aware, but the LaTeX-Workshop extensino is not. I wanted to do the research before jumping to feature
requests: is it possible to export @kmorel Github users UseLATEX custom_commands into the compile_commands.json database? As far as I saw, setting CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS to ON right before add_latex_document() is not enough. Does LATEX need to be a
first-class CMake language in order for this machinery to kick off?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
