使用cygwin从Nmake切换到MinGW

Question

How to use the MingW instead of the Nmake using cmake ???

I have cygwin installed with Mingw, gcc, g++, and gdb installed on Windows 7 x64

when I try this command :

cmake

I get a long error containing this:

-- Building for: NMake Makefiles
-- The C compiler identification is unknown
-- The CXX compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error: your RC compiler: "CMAKE_RC_COMPILER-NOTFOUND" was not found.   Ple
ase set CMAKE_RC_COMPILER to a valid compiler path or name.
-- Check for CL compiler version

  CMake will not be able to correctly generate this project.

Answer 1

You should choose

MinGW Makefiles.

If gcc is not in path, you should choose

Specify native compilers

to point paths to compiler binaries.
