1. Yes, if VS 2008 is installed correctly.<BR>
<BR>
First thing you should try is to build a file WITHOUT CMake:<BR>
<BR>
-----foo.cxx--------<BR>
#include <iostream><BR>
<BR>
int main()<BR>
{<BR>
std::cout << "hello\n";<BR>
return 0;<BR>
}<BR>
------------------<BR>
<BR>
Use this command line:<BR>
cl foo.cxx kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib winspool.lib shell32.lib <BR>
ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib comdlg32.lib advapi32.lib<BR>
<BR>
If that works, then CMake should work when run FROM THAT SAME SHELL.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
If that does not work, then you have not correctly installed the SDK and <BR>
compiler.<BR>
<BR>
Are you using the Express or professional version of VS 2008?<BR>
<BR>
If Express, you need to follow these instructions:<BR>
<A href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowssdk/archive/2008/02/22/using-visual-c-2008-express-with-the-windows-sdk-detailed-version.aspx" target="_blank">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowssdk/archive/2008/02/22/using-visual-c-2008-express-with-the-windows-sdk-detailed-version.aspx</A><BR>
<BR>
Make sure you run CMake and your compiler from a shell that has all the <BR>
environment that cl needs to run.<BR>
<BR>
Please post any errors exactly as you see them and include how you setup <BR>
the environment for the compiler.<BR>
<BR>
