Failed to compile Log4Qt with Visual Studio 2010

[jcfr]

http://my.cdash.org/viewBuildError.php?buildid=214707

For some reasons, Log4Qt refuses to get compiled by the Superbuild with Visual Studio 2010 (Log4t source dir is correctly downloaded, however, Log4Qt-build is empty). However, it compiles fine when running cmake on the project manually.

Any idea ?

Thanks, Julien.

which version of CMake ? Could you try with CMake 2.8.5 ?

So it is not only me. I was trying to compile CTK with Visual Studio 2010 like one week ago. I had the same errors and posted to ctk-developers and JC forwarded it to the CMake users list.

Yes, I use CMake 2.8.5

This is being discussed here:
