[CMake] Newbie question: cmake does not have nmake generator

[David Aldrich]

Hi 

> Any idea why this is happening please?

Sorry, I should have thought a little more. I deleted the contents of buildnmake and now CMake succeeds.

I then executed:

C:\plplot-5.9.5\buildnmake>path=...\plplot-5.9.5\buildnmake\dll;%PATH%
C:\plplot-5.9.5\buildnmake>nmake

and the nmake output terminates with:

Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\BIN\nmake.exe"' : return code '0x2'

Any ideas on this one please? I started from the Visual Studio 2005 command line interface, but Visual Studio 8 nmake has been invoked. I wonder if that is causing the problem?

Best regards

David
