Problem with compiling the rttr on MSVC on Windows.

[Mulligan81]

I'd like to compile & install the rttrfor my MSVC 2019 on Win 10. I've navigated in the PowerShellto the rttr root dir (where I've extracted the rttr archive) as dushyant-shukla stated here and just typed cmake . (as was also stated in the thread).

Here is the resulting output:

Project version: 0.9.6

The instruction says the next step is to use the nmake command to compile the src. And here is where I got stuck. When i type just nmakei got an error: MAKEFILE not found and no target specified Stop As I've checked and no MAKEFILE was indeed created after previously running the cmake . Can anyone help me. Sorry if the question is trivial/lame but I'm the beginner in the cmake/nmake matter. Thx.

Darek, go into the C:/Users/Darek/Pobrane_4/rttr-0.9.6-src1 directory. You should see a bunch of Visual Studio projects, and rttr.sln. Open up the .sln in the Visual Studio IDE and compile it from there. That's easier than messing around with nmake.
