Summary0015616: Configuring for Visual Studio 2015 creates Error
DescriptionSystem:
Windows 8.1 Pro (up-to-date) x64
Visual Studio (multiple installations: 2012 Ultimate, 2010 Professional, 2015 RC1)
CMAKE 3.2.3

After downloading and selecting VTK 6.2.0 folder, klick Configure and select "Visual Studio 2015 x64", "default native compiler".

multiple Errors are raised: MS VC++ Redist Lib
minkernel\crts\ucrt\inc\corecrt_internal_stdio_output.h : 761 : Expression ("Unexpected length specifier", false)

The same happens for ITK 4.7.1 .

This issue might have to be escalated to Microsoft, but since it is directly happening from within CMAKE, I thought I'd start here.
Steps To ReproduceUse a Win8.1 machine
install Visual Studio 2015 RC

download VTK 6.2.0

run CMake 3.2.3
configure from the VTK 6.2.0 source with a blank Build folder
as a compiler select MS Visual Studio 2015 x64.

Errors should be thrown ...
Additional InformationWorkaround:
"Ignoring" seems to be sufficient
TagsNo tags attached.

Thanks for the detailed report. I reproduced the issue. It is not a problem with Visual Studio or CMake but rather with a program executed via try_run in HDF5 CMake code that comes with VTK. I've proposed a fix here:

I'm resolving this CMake issue tracker entry as the problem is not with CMake. Follow the link in 0015616:0038928 for updates on the VTK side.
