CMake Tools persists a "default target" for the build process. The default target is the "all" target (named `ALL_BUILD` in some generators), which builds all of the targets that CMake has designated for a default build.

The name of the default target is shown in the status bar to the right of the **Build** button in square brackets:
The name of the default target is shown in the CMake Tools sidebar underneath the **Build** node:

Selecting this button shows a quick pick list for all the targets CMake Tools is aware of that can be built, along with the full path to the build result that will be generated by the target:

## Build a single target

You can build a single target without changing the current build target from the VS Code command pallette by running the **CMake: Build a target** command, or by pressing the keyboard shortcut (default is `Shift+F7`). CMake will build any dependent targets, even if they aren't directly selected.

From there, you can press the play button by the `Launch` node to run it in terminal.

## Debugging without a launch.json

CMake Tools lets you start a debugger on a target without creating a `launch.json`.

> **Note:**
> Only the debugger from Microsoft's `vscode-ms-vscode.cpptools` extension supports quick-debugging. See [Debug using a launch.json file](#debug-using-a-launchjson-file), below, for information about `launch.json` and using other debuggers.
