To configure your WSL installation to work with Visual Studio you need the following tools installed: a compiler (GCC or Clang), gdb, rsync, and zip. You can find details on how to install WSL here, but the easiest way is to download your distro of choice (Ubuntu, Debian, etc.) from the Microsoft Store. Stay tuned to the C++ Team Blog for more information on our WSL2 support. To avoid these slowdowns, you can install and run SSH on your local WSL2 installation and add a new SSH connection to WSL2 as if it were a remote machine. Learn more about the differences between WSL1 and WSL2 here. These commands are slower with WSL2 because performance across the Windows and Linux operating systems is faster in WSL1 than WSL2. mnt/c/Users…) to access local source files from WSL. Our support executes all commands locally through wsl.exe and relies on Windows drives mounted under the /mnt folder (e.g. Our native support for WSL works best with WSL1. If you are just getting started with our native support for CMake, be sure to check out our CMake Support in Visual Studio introductory page too. We recommend using CMake for all C++ cross-platform development. We will then walk-through how to use it with a CMake project and a MSBuild-based Linux project. In this blog post, we’ll first look at how to set up WSL. This will save you time getting up and running in a Linux environment and eliminates the need to copy and maintain sources on a remote machine. In order to use our native support for WSL you will need to install the Linux Development with C++ workload in Visual Studio. In Visual Studio you no longer need to add a remote connection or configure SSH in order to build and debug on your local WSL installation. WSL lets you run a lightweight Linux environment directly on Windows, including most command-line tools, utilities, and applications. Visual Studio 2019 version 16.1 added native support for using C++ with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). For up-to-date documentation see Walkthrough: Build and Debug C++ with Microsoft Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL 2) and Visual Studio 2022.įor an overview of the Visual Studio capabilities described in this article, see Develop C and C++ applications.This post was updated on December 11, 2020
