CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR

The extra generator used to build the project. See cmake-generators(7).

When using the Eclipse, CodeBlocks, CodeLite, Kate or Sublime generators, CMake generates Makefiles (CMAKE_GENERATOR) and additionally project files for the respective IDE. This IDE project file generator is stored in CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR (e.g. Eclipse CDT4).
