Build using MSVC Toolchain

Post by Mook »

I am trying to build a Windows application using only the MSVC (2013) toolchain with Codelite 8.2, but I always get an error :

Code: Select all

Client.mk(4) : fatal error U1033: syntax error : '=' unexpected
I have searched the fora and found reference to this issue but there was no resolution to it and that was dated 2013!

I have CMake 3.3.2 installed but I can't get anything to build, I'd really appreciate your help with this as my head is starting to hurt.

Are the makefiles generated by CMake?
If this is true, than the problem is within CMake

Well to be honest I don't know, this is my first venture using this, having used Visual Studio before. But in desperation I changed to NotePad++ and an nmake file, and this worked for me. But with that said I would like to use codelite with an nmake makefile as it's my IDE of choice on Linux and Mac if this is possible.
