Try commenting that out in Windows-GNU.cmake like this: #enable_language(RC) Then see if it works.
Hi Bill: I was glad you could access the attachment from the list version. So I am putting this discussion back on the list so you can continue to do that. My own gut feeling is that commenting out "enable_language(RC)" is simply trying to mask symptoms of a bug caused by the "NMake Makefiles JOM" generator not initializing things correctly for the MinGW suite of compilers. After all, generators that are compatible with the MinGW suite of compilers execute Windows-GNU.cmake without issues. Nevertheless, you may have had something definite in mind when proposing this experiment so I did exactly what you suggested. The cmake command (with "enable_language(RC) commented out") was invoked like this: bash.exe-3.1$ cmake --debug-trycompile -G"NMake Makefiles JOM" \ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc .. >& cmake.out Unlike before where that exact same command (without commenting out "enable_language(RC)") errored out, this time that command hung. There was no cpu time being spent on this according to top (which I an run in the background on my Linux system to see what resources Wine is using). But I had to use crtl-C to get the above cmake command to exit. Just to review, the CMakeLists.txt file consists of the following two lines: project(test_jom_mingw C) cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.10.2) I have attached a compressed tarball of the entire build tree so you can see the exact results on my system. However, it is quite possible the hang on the Wine version of Windows will turn into some condition with better diagnostics on Microsoft Windows. Thus, could you please run the above two-line project yourself in the manner I have described (first without commenting out "enable_language(RC)" to confirm there is also an issue on the Microsoft version of Windows) to see what happens for the Microsoft version of Windows?
