[CMake] One last try

[Gerry Weaver]

Hello All,


Thank you for your replies. 


The cmake command fails when trying to compile the test file. It says it cannot find kernel32.lib. I can compile and link without cmake just fine. Any ideas?


Thanks,
-G

  1. Yes, if VS 2008 is installed correctly.
  
  First thing you should try is to build a file WITHOUT CMake:
  
  -----foo.cxx--------
  #include <iostream>
  
  int main()
  {
     std::cout << "hello\n";
     return 0;
  }
  ------------------
  
  Use this command line:
    cl foo.cxx kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib winspool.lib shell32.lib 
  ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib comdlg32.lib advapi32.lib
  
  If that works, then CMake should work when run FROM THAT SAME SHELL.
  
  
  If that does not work, then you have not correctly installed the SDK and 
  compiler.
  
  Are you using the Express or professional version of VS 2008?
  
  If Express, you need to follow these instructions:

  Make sure you run CMake and your compiler from a shell that has all the 
  environment that cl needs to run.
  
  Please post any errors exactly as you see them and include how you setup 
  the environment for the compiler.
