Cmake building issues

[rudeboy88]

Hey everyone

Thanks for the speedy responses I have downloaded the dependencies and made sure the build folder exists but this didn't change the outcome. Its not really clear what the issue is so I'm going to keep looking into it, and if I figure out what I missed or how I can fix the issue I'll post it here.

thanks again

It can't find your VC compiler.

Try this:

1) Delete your build folder and configure to create it there again.

2) Hit configure and instead of selecting Visual Studio 10 solution like you normally would. There's a radio box "Specify Native Compiler". That will bring you to a screen with some boxes for compiler locations: you only care about C and C++ compiler here. You need to put in the absolute location of your cl.exe for both.

For me on Windows 7 for 2010 Ultimate it's:
C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0/VC/bin/cl.exe

WindowsXP is *probably*:
C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0/VC/bin/cl.exe

You should search for it though and fill those boxes in and click finish. If you can't find cl.exe then something is screwed up with your install.
