Summary0013498: CMake does not fully support Visual Studio 11 WinRT project type
DescriptionCMake currently does not fully support setting project type as needed to develop WinRT applications for Windows 8 with the Visual Studio 11 generator.

A lot of work was done here : http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=12930 [^]

But that is not enought.

VS_WINRT_EXTENSIONS add <WindowsAppContainer>true</WindowsAppContainer> tag to <PropertyGroup> tag witch have specific "Condition".

Example output :

  <PropertyGroup Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Debug|Win32'" Label="Configuration">
    <ConfigurationType>Application</ConfigurationType>
    <PlatformToolset>v110</PlatformToolset>
    <WindowsAppContainer>true</WindowsAppContainer>
  </PropertyGroup>

Because of that we are able to compile windows runtime code and generate .exe code.

But the next step after compilation is to deploy app and try to debug. We need <AppContainerApplication>true</AppContainerApplication> tag to obtain that feature on. That will be in <PropertyGroup Label="Globals"> tag.

Example :

  <PropertyGroup Label="Globals">
    <ProjectGuid>{93441f5d-57bf-4021-a2e3-973fac0ac3c4}</ProjectGuid>
    <RootNamespace>Direct3DApp1</RootNamespace>
    <DefaultLanguage>en-US</DefaultLanguage>
    <MinimumVisualStudioVersion>11.0</MinimumVisualStudioVersion>
    <AppContainerApplication>true</AppContainerApplication>
  </PropertyGroup>

  (source from Visual Studio Professional 2012 Direct3DApp sample )

Generaly using <AppContainerApplication> instead of <WindowsAppContainer> will make whole process more easly. <AppContainerApplication> in "Globals" label override all "Configuration" labels and make it possible to deploy and debug WinRT app. Additionally <AppContainerApplication> make "Windows Store App Support" to grey and hardcode "Yes" statement.

Pure Visual Studio 2012 WinRT sample app use only <AppContainerApplication> tag.

 Issues 0013511, 0013498, 0013749 are all asking for WinRT support in some form. The existing CMake features for it were contributed by a user in 0012930. No progress is being made on these issues by upstream CMake developers. Please propose patches.

There should be no new keyword arguments to add_executable. Any information needed can be added to a target with the "set_property(TARGET ...)" command.

 Resolving as duplicate of 0013511. Even though this one came first there has been more discussion over there.
