Hi, I have been stuck here for many days... I follow the instruction but after I do the cmake ....., no make file showed. so I cannot do the make. I'm new to related things so I have hard time figuring out what's wrong. Please help me, thank you. the following are the command line and [result.] C:\ZhouJunfeng\project\4dface\build>cmake -C ../4dface/initial_cache.cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../install -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc-7 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++-7 -DOpenCV_haarcascades_DIR=C:\\ZhouJunfeng\\project\\vcpkg\\vcpkg\\packages\\opencv_x64-windows\\share\\opencv\\haarcascades\\ ../4dface/ -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" loading initial cache file ../4dface/initial_cache.cmake -- The C compiler identification is MSVC 19.16.27027.1 -- The CXX compiler identification is MSVC 19.16.27027.1 -- Check for working C compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2017/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.16.27023/bin/Hostx86/x86/cl.exe -- Check for working C compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2017/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.16.27023/bin/Hostx86/x86/cl.exe -- works -- Detecting C compiler ABI info -- Detecting C compiler ABI info - done -- Detecting C compile features -- Detecting C compile features - done -- Check for working CXX compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2017/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.16.27023/bin/Hostx86/x86/cl.exe -- Check for working CXX compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2017/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.16.27023/bin/Hostx86/x86/cl.exe -- works -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info - done -- Detecting CXX compile features -- Detecting CXX compile features - done -- Found OpenCV: C:/ZhouJunfeng/project/vcpkg/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows (found suitable version "3.4.3", minimum required is "3") found components: core imgcodecs imgproc highgui videoio objdetect -- OpenCV include dir found at C:/ZhouJunfeng/project/vcpkg/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/include;C:/ZhouJunfeng/project/vcpkg/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/include/opencv -- OpenCV library dir found at C:\ZhouJunfeng\project\vcpkg\vcpkg\packages\opencv_x64-windows\lib -- Boost version: 1.59.0 -- Found the following Boost libraries: -- system -- filesystem -- program_options -- Boost found at C:/tools/boost_1_59_0 -- Eigen3 found: TRUE -- Eigen3 include dir found at C:\ZhouJunfeng\project\vcpkg\vcpkg\installed\x64-windows\include\eigen3 -- Eigen3 version: 3.3.7 -- Configuring done -- Generating done -- Build files have been written to: C:/ZhouJunfeng/project/4dface/build

I see that you were probably able to figure out that you have to open the created solution and build with Visual Studio. You can also use cmake --build . --config <Config> --target <Target> where can be Release, Debug etc., and an optional target to build (e.g. the library, examples, or install target).

For the future, I would suggest to post such questions on StackOverflow or a similar help website, since this is not an issue about this software.

Yes, I finally get it done in Visual Studio. But I still cannot understand why that happened. Thank you very much for the reply and I think post the questions on help website will definitely help beginners like me in similar circumstance.
