CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:8 (set\_property):  
set\_property could not find TARGET Main. Perhaps it has not yet been  
created.

set\_property given invalid scope VS\_SOURCE\_SETTINGS\_WavePsslc. Valid  
scopes are GLOBAL, DIRECTORY, TARGET, SOURCE, TEST, CACHE, INSTALL.

The `Main` target needs to be created before you can set properties on it. Maybe something is out-of-order here?

This is invalid syntax. I suspect you have `set_property(VS_SOURCE_SETTINGS)` when it should (probably) be `set_property(TARGET … PROPERTY VS_SOURCE_SETTINGS …)`.
