Hi I am trying to use the Ninja generator to compile on a Windows machine using the Visual Studio 11 compilers.
>From a VS11 console I run cmake (version: 2.8.11.2 ): cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=MSVC .. I then run Ninja (version 1.4.0) ninja -v and all appears well until the final link: [70/70] cmd.exe /c cd . && c:\cygwin\bin\ld.exe /lib /nologo .... <snip>.... /lib: file not recognized: Is a directory ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. Cygwin is in my path but I am surprised that I appear to be using it to Link? I thought the CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME setting would have configured the linker? I am obviously missing something obvious.
