Summary0015662: Add support for Windows/Windows Phone SDKs with Visual Studio 2015
DescriptionWith Visual Studio 2015, the locations of the registry keys for the Windows SDK and WIndows Phone SDK have changed, and so the VS 2015 generator—which relies on the VS 2013 registry settings—generates errors wrongly.
Steps To ReproduceOn a freshly installed system with no prior installation of Visual Studio 2013, and a fresh installation of Visual Studio 2015 with Windows SDK 8.1 and Windows Phone SDK 8.1 installed, attempt to cmake a project with
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME "WindowsPhone")
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION "8.1")

The following error is generated:

-- Building for: Visual Studio 14 2015
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (project):
  A Windows Phone component with CMake requires both the Windows Desktop SDK
  as well as the Windows Phone '8.1' SDK. Please make sure that you have
  both installed
Additional InformationI can't find the new Windows Phone SDK registry keys, but they are not where cmake is expecting them for sure. The new WIndows SDK is now located at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\InstallationFolder
TagsNo tags attached.

Looks like on my system the WinPhone SDK install path reg entry is here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\WindowsPhone\v8.1\Install Path

This is working when building with the VS15 compiler. But VS15 also installs the VS13 compiler that has the runtime currently installed on Windows Phone 8/8.1. It is the preferred way to compile Windows Phone binary until Windows 10 Mobile is out.

This fix doesn't detect when it's used with the VS13 compiler and doesn't detect the proper folders for the Windows Phone SDK.

Hi Steve,

Can you explain the issue that you're hitting and your scenario? Are you trying to build WindowsPhone 8.1 binaries in VS 2015? Are you trying to build Windows 10 Mobile binaries?

I am trying to build Windows Phone 8.1 binaries with VS 2015. And I'm using cmake 3.4.0-rc1 using the following command-line:

cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 ARM" -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=WindowsPhone -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=8.1 -DSHARED=OFF .

I get the following error:
  A Windows Phone component with CMake requires both the Windows Desktop SDK
  as well as the Windows Phone '8.1' SDK. Please make sure that you have
  both installed

Building without cmake by picking the right environment as follows works fine in the same environment:
call "%VS120COMNTOOLS%vsvars32.bat"
call "%VSINSTALLDIR%VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86_arm
SET WindowsPhoneKitDir=reg query "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\WindowsPhoneApp\v8.1" /v "InstallationFolder"
set LIB=%VCINSTALLDIR%lib\store\arm;%WindowsPhoneKitDir%lib\arm;%LIB%
set LIBPATH=%VCINSTALLDIR%lib\store\arm;%WindowsPhoneKitDir%lib\arm;%LIB%


I'm also trying to build WinRT (Win 8.1 Store apps) x86 binaries with VS 2015. And I'm using cmake 3.4.0-rc1 using the following command-line:

cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=WindowsStore -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=8.1 -DSHARED=OFF .

Building without cmake by picking the right environment as follows works fine in the same environment:
call "%VS120COMNTOOLS%vsvars32.bat"
call "%VSINSTALLDIR%VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86
set LIB=%VCINSTALLDIR%lib\store;%LIB%
set LIBPATH=%VCINSTALLDIR%lib\store;%LIB%

PS: it's working fine when I replace "Visual Studio 12 2013" with "Visual Studio 14 2015". But that's not what I want, I want to use the VS13 compiler with the VS13 runtime.

Thanks for explaining your scenario. If you specify the System Version to be 8.1, then you are using the v120 toolsets (compiler and runtimes) which are the VS2013 version. You still need to specify that you want to target "Visual Studio 14 2015", which is the one that you have installed.

If you want to use the 2013 generator, then you need to have Visual studio 2013 installed.
