CMake Setup Windows mingw [message #1840472]

I've been trying to set up new projects to run cmake. I want to build a project in cmake. I have already installed cmake the software and mingw on a windows 10 computer. I've tried to create the project then turn it into a cmake project by adding a different debug and release configuration. I have also tried importing an existing code by creating a cmake file with simple commands. The error I get is: symbol cout could not be resolved and that none of the C++ standard library is included.

Quote:

'cmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command

Eclipse just starts a process to run external commands.
It's really the OS that isn't recognizing it.

Assuming you actually have cmake installed, try placing the path to it in the system execution path list (Path) variable.
