[CMake] Visual Studio with CUDA does not work in 3.9

[Mueller-Roemer, Johannes Sebastian]

If anyone else runs into this issue: I was able to solve it by re-installing the .NET 3.5 Framework which a recent Update had apparently removed (because I have previously built "native" CUDA VS projects on this machine without issues).

This solved the issue for me. If you have an error message like

error MSB4062: The "Nvda.Build.CudaTasks.SanitizePaths" task could not be loaded from the assembly C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140\BuildCustomizations\Nvda.Build.CudaTasks.v8.0.dll.
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Build.Utilities.v3.5, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Confirm that the <UsingTask> declaration is correct, that the assembly and all its dependencies are available, and that the task contains a public class that implements

in your cmake error log, you are running into the same issue.

Hi

Unfortunately you are going to need to provide more information to help track down the issue. We currently have machines that verify
2015/8.0 and 2013/7.5 properly work (
https://open.cdash.org/index.php?project=CMake&filtercount=1&showfilters=1&field1=buildname&compare1=63&value1=CUDA
)

Can you please provide run from the build directory cmake --system-information <file> and send the results?
