[CMake] Using CMake with WEC 2013 and VS 2015

[Aleksandar Fabijanic]

Hello,

I am trying to generate a VS 2015 project for a WEC 2015 (CMakeLists.txt
works fine for generation of the projects for "regular" VC 2015 platform
target). I have the WEC, Platform builder etc installed, my SDK (SDK1)
built and installed; I can create and build a "hello world" console app for
CE800 Platform Toolset using the wizard in VS GUI IDE.

However, when I try to use CMake to generate VS 2015 project(s):

λ cat ..\cmake\WEC2013.cmake
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME WindowsCE)
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION 8.0)
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR arm)
set(CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET CE800)
set(CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM SDK1)

λ cmake --debug-trycompile -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=..\WEC2013.cmake ..

 I run into following problem (comments in /**/ are mine, unimportant
portions of cmake output cut out for clarity):

<Begin CMake output>

 LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'ole32.lib'


 [C:\Temp\cmake_build\CMakeFiles\CMakeTmp\cmTC_c8221.vcxproj]

CMake output>

Since I run cmake with `--debug-trycompile`, I can subsequently open the
generated temporary `cmTC_c8221.vcxproj`, add the missing lib directories
(after I add the one for ole32.lib, there are also errors for uuid.lib and
commctrl.lib), and the project will build. But I would expect this process
to generate "out of the box", without errors.

Am I not doing something right here or is this a CMake-related problem?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Alex
