Bad CMake executable #2

Open Maniumn opened 3 months ago

Maniumn commented 3 months ago

I have added following environments to local user environments: QTDIR=C:\Qt_v2\6.7.0\msvc2019_64\ Path+=C:\Qt_v2\6.7.0\msvc2019_64\bin

Started VSCode, installed all extensions required from extensions.json, now I get following error. CMake Tools (Extension) throws this error: Bad CMake executable: "". Check to make sure it is installed or the value of the "cmake.cmakePath" setting contains the correct path

After installing CMake 3.29.4 as standalone with user environment path I get following output on building:

[main] Configuring project: blog-vscode-template

Hi, you need ninja installed and in PATH

Now VSCode shows

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (project):No CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER could be found.

Tell CMake where to find the compiler by setting either the environment
variable "CXX" or the CMake cache entry CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to the full path
to the compiler, or to the compiler name if it is in the PATH.

Looks like Visual Studio should be installed?
