How To

# Complete CMake code

Qt Creator uses generic highlighting to provide code completion specific arguments for the CMake commands. For example, only source file properties are suggested for the CMake: set_source_files_properties command, not the test or target properties.

The following CMake-specific trigger tokens are supported:

- `$` for variables
- `$<` for generator expressions
- `$ENV` for environment variables

Press Tab or Enter to accept the selected suggestion and complete the code.
