[Ctk-developers] prerequisites and errors configuring CTK on Windows

[Jean-Christophe Fillion-Robin]

Hi Pedro,

Thanks for your report.

In the past few days, we fixed few problem related to windows.
Would it be possible to give a new try from a clean build directory ?

As of today, WITH_COVERAGE is not supported on windows ... I will make sure
a warning is displayed.

Thks
