It works for me on Windows 10 with CMake 3.4.3 and 3.5.0-rc2:

> cmake --version
cmake version 3.4.3
...

> cmake ..\src -G "Visual Studio 14 2015"
-- The C compiler identification is MSVC 19.0.23725.0
....

What generator are you using?

Please post the CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log file from the build tree.

Thanks, found the error. My environment didn't have the default windows sdk installed.

From the CMakeError.log:

"C:\src\nda_etf_booking\CMakeFiles\3.5.0-rc2\CompilerIdC\CompilerIdC.vcxproj" (default target) (1) ->
(Desktop_PlatformPrepareForBuild target) ->
  C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140\Platforms\Win32\PlatformToolsets\v140\Toolset.targets(34,5): error MSB8036: The Windows SDK version 8.1 was not found. Install the required version of Windows SDK or change the SDK version in the project property pages.."
