cmake 4.2.1
Win11 home (x86-64)
Ninja 1.13.1 (windows version)
cygwin 3.7.0
I am brand new to cmake. A complete novice. So, if my question is dumb then that tells the truth about me.
cmake -G Ninja -B build produces the following error: '/usr/bin/ninja.exe' '-C' '/d/home/skidmarks/Projects/Test/cmake/src/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeScratch/TryCompile-hiEt3u' '-t' 'recompact' failed with: ninja: fatal: chdir to '/d/home/skidmarks/Projects/Test/cmake/src/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeScratch/TryCompile-hiEt3u' - No such file or directory
The file/direcotry ‘’‘d/home/skidmarks/Projects/Test/cmake/src/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeScratch/TryCompile-hiEt3u’" does not exist. Who creates this file? The user? cmake? And if it’s the user where do I find out what should be in it.
