I'm trying to generate a Unix style (or NMake) Makefile that I can

of errors. Apparently, I'm missing a number of variables. How can I
set these variables? I'd still like to use the Microsoft compiler
*but* within the eclipse environment.
You need to setup the MS compile to work from the command line. The
easy way is to run the visual studio command prompt from the start
menu under visual studio tools. Then run cmake from that shell, and
it should work.
Thanks Bill.
Do you mean I should start the command prompt and run devenv or
something like that? I dont understand what you mean by "run the visual
studio command prompt from the start menu under visual studio tools". Am
I to launch the command shell from/within visual studio?
The command prompt can be found from your start menu: Start Menu -> All
Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 -> Visual Studio Tools ->
Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt.
This will give you a regular windows command prompt with all environment
variables set up in order for you to be able to run the command-line
studio tools (cl, nmake, vcbuild, etc.)
