I encountered a situation like described here: https://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=15057
The bug seems to be closed as "not reproducible"; here is one way to cause it: 1. Have %PATH% environment variable contain C:/cygdrive/bin , which also contains a copy of cmake 2.x (for me it was 2.8.12) 2. Invoke cmake-gui.exe from cmake version 3.x 3. try to generate VS2013 solution, it fails saying unknown compiler. The workaround is to purge your PATH environment variable so that no copies of cmake.exe are there. It still feels like a bug that could be fixed ; why should cmake 3.x allow old versions to interfere with it at runtime? At a minimum, some kind of warning would make the issue more obvious and save people some time. _______________ Peter Karasev [email protected]
