Seems that it is the only way. Thanks!

你好！

If this feature is not directly supported by CMake, there is a work around.

Run CMake in an environment with Visual Studio installed and back up the
cache files (folderCMakeFiles and file CMakeCache.txt).
Then copy these files on your computer which does not have Visual Studio
installed. It should bypass the compiler tests etc...
I use it to generate XCode projects on a Windows XP OS and it works pretty
well.

       HI, all.

       How can I generate VC project and solution files on machine WITHOUT
Visual Studio installed?

       If I run "cmake .", I'll get error message like this:

       CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding
to "Visual Studio 6".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need to
select a different build tool.
       CMake Error: Could not find cmake module
file:D:/chenli/tmp/a/CMakeFiles/CMakeCCompiler.cmake
       CMake Error: Could not find cmake module
file:D:/chenli/tmp/a/CMakeFiles/CMakeCXXCompiler.cmake

       I've also tried using -G parameter to specify generator to "Visual
Studio 8 2005", but no luck.

       I'm really new to cmake. So if this question is basic, please forgive
me. I've read FAQ and googled, still no answer :(

       Thanks.
       -Chen
