Then you need to fix those errors, either your environment is incorrectly setup (make sure to use the Visual studio command prompt link to get a properly setup command prompt from where you can run cmake) or the compiler lacks some of these headers. In the latter case you'll have to adjust your code and use whatever facilities cl provides. However strings.h and unistd.h are both part of VC++ so I guess its the broken environment. > so i thought its good to link it with mks compiler and give path to the > libraries and header used my mks for windows.. i hope you got it.. That simply won't work and won't help you at all.
