The C++ compiler

"C:/Programy/Programming/Qt/Qt_5_14_1/Tools/mingw730_64/bin/mingw32-make.exe"

is not able to compile a simple test program.

It fails with the following output:

Whatever i put it doesn’t work. There are only 3 possible combinatins, gcc for c compiler, g++ /c++ for c++, and i also tried mingw32-make, noen of it works, but in the past it worked. This thing complains about the compiler, and when i specify it, still it doesn’t work, idk what to do then, any idea?

How do you actually call CMake? Something made CMake think that “C:/Programy/Programming/Qt/Qt_5_14_1/Tools/mingw730_64/bin/mingw32-make.exe” is what it should use as a compiler. I really doubt it made such a decision by itself, so it’s ether an environment variable or an explicit parameter to the CMake invocation.

3

As i said, i tried all variants, and none works, so it’s not the reason. I have gcc for c, c++/g++ and few others for c++, the reason why i put mingw32-make it’s because on other forums someoen was talking about it still nothing. So idk why it doens’t work, you tell me rather.

You still did not show how you tried it nor the error from the actual compilers. mingw32-make is a make program not a compiler - it cannot work.
Show an actual attempt with a COMPILER - your command line and the errors you get.

5

There’s nothing to show at this point, as i said i tried various compilers but the problem is that the particular library doesn’t compile with anythung, i tried vs compilers etc, but the cmake as always mislead the issue, i tought it was a compilers or cmake setup that didn’t want to compile anything, turns out that the setup i made is working, but not with this lib.
