Yes, that would work as well.  As long as cmake-gui was run in an 
environment that had the compiler setup to work from the command line.

This doesn't work unfortunately; it still finds GNU 4.8.3 compiler somehow.

You can select the Ninja generator (e.g. cmake -G Ninja) while running 
cmake from the desired Visual Studio command line environment.

[CMake] How to generate for Ninja + MSVC?

Is there a way to generate for Ninja using MSVC toolchain? If so, how
do I do that? Do I need a toolchain file?

For some reason Strawberry Perl installed gcc/g++ to my PATH. I
removed this and it's finding MSVC 19 now. Thanks.

Could also set CC and CXX to cl before running CMake.

No, that is for telling the VS IDE which tool set to use.  It has no 
effect on the Ninja generator.  Like makefiles the ninja generator 
assumes it is running in an environment that is setup to run a compiler 
from the command line.  If there is more than one compiler it picks one. 
 If you have more than one compiler you can force it to pick one over 
the other with CC and CXX variables.   The IDE has its own environment 
for the compiler and some IDEs support more than one tool chain and the 
-T is how you tell it to use something other than its default.

Re: [CMake] How to generate for Ninja + MSVC?

2015-12-02 Thread CHEVRIER, Marc 
Alternate solution is to define following environment variables:
* CC=cl.exe
* CXX=cl.exe

In this case, CMake will search these compilers rather than the standard 
choices (starting with c++ and g++ for C++ language).

And you don’t have any longer constraints about your environment.

Ah, okay, thanks.  From cmake-gui the solution equivalent would be
selecting the Ninja generator but specifying native compilers (cl.exe
for this example) instead of using the default native compilers?
