Summary0014871: Error running link command when using gfortran on Windows with NMake Makefiles
DescriptionRunning CMake on a small test project that combines C++ and Fortran (https://github.com/vitaut/test [^]) results in the following error:

  Linking Fortran executable cmTryCompileExec108399929.exe


  "C:\Program Files\CMake 2.8\bin\cmake.exe" -E cmake_link_script
  CMakeFiles\cmTryCompileExec108399929.dir\link.txt --verbose=1


  "C:\Program Files\CMake 2.8\bin\cmake.exe" -E remove -f
  CMakeFiles\cmTryCompileExec108399929.dir/objects.a


  "" cr CMakeFiles\cmTryCompileExec108399929.dir/objects.a
  @CMakeFiles\cmTryCompileExec108399929.dir\objects1.rsp

I'm using MinGW's toolchain including gfortran version 4.8.1 on 32-bit Windows 7.
Steps To Reproduce0. Install MinGW including mingw32-gcc-fortran package from http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Install_MinGW [^]

1. Clone the test repository:
   git clone https://github.com/vitaut/test.git [^]

2. Run CMake:
   cd test
   cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" .

3. Observe the error.

Sorry, I omitted the actual error message which is:

    Error running link command: The parameter is incorrect

And one more correction, I used "NMake Makefiles" generator, so the cmake command in item 2 should be:

    cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" .

I do not think the combination of gfortran with NMake Makefiles has ever been attempted before. Why do you need it?
