An application can have several build configurations that use different configuration options. These build configurations can belong to different CMake build systems, which means you can have sysbuild-based configurations next to configurations that do not use sysbuild.

Tip

If you want to work with multiple domains in a single build configuration that uses sysbuild, see How to work with multi-domain configurations.

You can create multiple build configurations for an application using the same setup steps as for setting up a single build configuration. The additional build configurations appear under the selected application. The active build configuration (context) is indicated by the blue color of its icon in the treeview. At any given time, you can only have one build configuration (and thus application) active.
