cmake -B build CMake Error: CMAKE_C_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage 报错

问题

vscode中使用cmake -B build时报错：
– Building for: NMake Makefiles
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (project):
Running

‘nmake’ ‘-?’

failed with:

no such file or directory

CMake Error: CMAKE_C_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage
CMake Error: CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage
– Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

原因

cmake默认nmake生成Makefiles（可用cmake --help查看）
但是找不到nmake

解决方案

指定使用MinGW生成Makefiles
将cmake -B build改为：
cmake -G “MinGW Makefiles” -B build
