If you want an example CMakeUserPreset to start off with you can copy the CMakeUserPresets.json.template -> CMakeUserPresets.json

AUTO_PLUGIN_DEPLOYMENT

• This option is default "OFF"
• Make sure "AUTO_PLUGIN_DEPLOYMENT" is set to "ON" in CMakeUserPresets.json
• Change the "SamplePluginOutputDir" value to match your desired outputs, if you want multiple folders you can separate them by ; is shown in the template example

When using custom preset you can call BuildRelease.bat with an parameter to specify which preset to configure eg: .\BuildRelease.bat ALL-WITH-AUTO-DEPLOYMENT

When switching between different presets you might need to remove the build folder
