the error that CMake can not find the C/C++ compilers. I do not recall
ever having this issue. I just recently updated Windows 10 to the latest
so I am not sure if that caused something to go wrong? I use the
"Zipped" version of CMake if that makes a difference. I did have to
install the "Windows 8.1 SDK" in order for QtCreator to work correctly.

I can successfully do the following:
* Configure and generate from the command line for Ninja
* Use the CMake-Gui to generate a VS 12 2013 solution file without any
issues.
* QtCreator 4.1 can use ninja to properly generate its own projects with
a correctly detected compiler.

Thoughts?
You have to run cmake-gui from an environment that has been setup to run 
the compiler.  VS command prompt.  If you run cmake-gui from a menu or 
clicking on an icon it won't have that and things won't work unless you 
use the VS generator which does not require a special environment.

Re: [CMake] Windows Visual Studio 13 with Ninja & CMake

[Michael Jackson]

Yes. It works from there. BUT I run a custom command prompt through a
variation of the standard "vcvarsall.bat" file where I add in my own
environment variables but essentially it is the standard Visual Studio
Command Prompt.

Thanks

Re: [CMake] Windows Visual Studio 13 with Ninja & CMake

[David Cole via CMake]

Does it work if you launch cmake-gui from the command prompt that
works for your "from the command line" scenario?

[CMake] Windows Visual Studio 13 with Ninja & CMake

[Michael Jackson]

My combination is Windows 10 (Anniversary Update), Visual Studio 12 2013 
Update 5, Ninja and CMake 3.5/3.6.


I launch CMake-GUI.exe, select my Source and binary directories and then 
"Configure", select "Ninja" as the generator and then I instantly get 
the error that CMake can not find the C/C++ compilers. I do not recall 
ever having this issue. I just recently updated Windows 10 to the latest 
so I am not sure if that caused something to go wrong? I use the 
"Zipped" version of CMake if that makes a difference. I did have to 
install the "Windows 8.1 SDK" in order for QtCreator to work correctly.


I can successfully do the following:
* Configure and generate from the command line for Ninja
* Use the CMake-Gui to generate a VS 12 2013 solution file without any 
issues.
* QtCreator 4.1 can use ninja to properly generate its own projects with 
a correctly detected compiler.
