Hi, once more I tried to compile cmake using VS Express (the environment is working, did compile Xerces etc.). To compile cmake I use the precompiled version from webpage:
c:\cpp\bin\cmake -G "Visual Studio 8 2005" -- Check for working C compiler: cl CMake Error: Generator: execution of make failed. Make command was: C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~1\Common7\IDE\VCEXPR~1.EXE\VCExpress.exe CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE.sln /build Debug /project cmTryCompileExec -- Check for working C compiler: cl -- broken CMake Error: The C compiler "cl" is not able to compile a simple test program. It fails with the following output: Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden Generator: execution of make failed. Make command was: C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~1\Common7\IDE\VCEXPR~1.EXE\VCExpress.exe CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE.sln /build Debug /project cmTryCompileExec CMake will not be able to correctly generate this project. -- Configuring done The win Gui cmakesetup shows an error that CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM isn't found. Well, after some hours I know more ;-) The way to find the VCExpress Exe in CMakeVC8FindMake won't work. I renamed VCEpress.exe to devenv.{exe|manifest} and changed the search order: FIND_PROGRAM(CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM NAMES devenv VCExpress PATHS [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\8.0\\Setup\\VS;EnvironmentDirectory] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\8.0\\Setup;Dbghelp_path] "$ENV{ProgramFiles}/Microsoft Visual Studio .NET/Common7/IDE" "$ENV{ProgramFiles}/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/Common7/IDE" "$ENV{ProgramFiles}/Microsoft Visual Studio8/Common7/IDE" "$ENV{ProgramFiles} (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio .NET/Common7/IDE" "$ENV{ProgramFiles} (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/Common7/IDE" "$ENV{ProgramFiles} (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio8/Common7/IDE" "/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/Common7/IDE/" ) MARK_AS_ADVANCED(CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM) SET(MSVC80 1) Now it's working!: D:\Temp\build\CMake-cvs-head>c:\cpp\bin\cmake -G "Visual Studio 8 2005" -- Check for working C compiler: cl -- Check for working C compiler: cl -- works -- Check size of void* -- Check size of void* - done -- Check for working CXX compiler: cl -- Check for working CXX compiler: cl -- works -- Looking for C++ include iostream -- Looking for C++ include iostream - found -- Check for STD namespace .... No idea if that matters: dir "c:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE"\VC* Volume in Laufwerk C: hat keine Bezeichnung.

Hopefully you can fix it in the cvs/release. Regards, Olaf _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list CMake@cmake.org http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
