{
"tasks": [
{
"type": "cppbuild",
"label": "C/C++: g++.exe build active file",
"command": "C:\\msys64\\ucrt64\\bin\\g++.exe",
"args": [
"-fdiagnostics-color=always",
"-g",
"${fileDirname}/*.cpp",
"-o",
"${fileDirname}\\${fileBasenameNoExtension}.exe",
],
"options": {
"cwd": "${fileDirname}"
},
"problemMatcher": ["$gcc"],
"group": {
"kind": "build",
"isDefault": true
},
"detail": "Task generated by Debugger."
}
],
"version": "2.0.0"
}
