[CMake] CMake and MinGW on Windows

[Shriramana Sharma]

Hello.

I would like to use CMake to build some CMake-ready Qt-based
applications on Windows using MinGW.

I get an error saying "Make was not found". I used
-DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM="<path to mingw>". But then I got an error saying
C compiler could not compile the test program.

I tried on the CMake wiki but both the MinGW-related pages I found:

http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_MinGW_Compiler_Issues
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CmakeMingw

did not solve my problem. Please can anyone give clear instructions as
to how to use CMake with MinGW, especially for compiling Qt programs
on Windows?

Thanks in advance.
