[Cmake] Problem discovering kernel32.lib

[ibiris at genius.org.br]

Hi,

I am trying CMake in a newly built machine, properly populated with Visual
Studio and with all paths set to contain bin and lib directories for Visual
Studio development. I am still picking up the following error when trying
to run cmake

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Determining if the C compiler works failed with the following output:
Building object file testCCompiler.obj...

          cl  at C:\DOCUME~1\ibiris\CONFIG~1\Temp\nma01436.

testCCompiler.c

Building executable
C:\Projects\PROJECT-TEST\build\CMakeTmp\cmTryCompileExec.exe...

          cl /nologo  at C:\DOCUME~1\ibiris\CONFIG~1\Temp\nmb01436.

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "kernel32.lib"

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x2'

Stop.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am not sure why it cannot find kernel32, once the path for this lib is
included in the %PATH% variable, and the machine has been tested with
Visual Studio compilation. The only thing different is that kernel32.lib
appears under windows explorer as KERNEL32.LIB

Same error appears when running the cmake GUI on windows. This is CMake
1.8.3

Has anyone come across this problem before? All help will be greatfully
appreciated.
