Hi I get the following error when trying to build the generated solution from cmake-gui using MS Visual Studio 2019:

error MSB6003: The specified task executable "CL.exe" could not be run. System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path '\PositionBasedDynamics\build\GenericParameters\src\Ext_GenericParameters-build\CMakeFiles\CMakeScratch\TryCompile-c7klt7\cmTC_a814a.dir\Debug\cmTC_a814a.tlog'

Did you install git?

Yes, I installed git.exe. In fact, executing git --version in the command prompt yields: git version 2.40.0.windows.1

Solved. I needed to configure the environment variable VCTargetsPath. In my case MS VS2019 it was:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v160\

(With the trailing slash) After that all went smoothly.

Thanks
