CMake relys on a correctly installed compiler. If you can create a simple project with the VS GUI, and it works, and CMake does not, then it is CMake's fault. If you create the simple project with the VS IDE and it can not find key libraries from the SDK, then your compiler is not installed correctly. BTW, the professional versions of the compiler do install and ship with the SDK. -Bill _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list [email protected] http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
