MakeFile not being produced

[hudkinsnoah]

I am trying to update the newest version of JSBSim but I am not able to make the project with CMake (which is desired over visual studio). I follow the instructions of making a build directory, changing directories into the new build folder, running cmake .. and then once that finishes, I run make. Whenever I run make, I get the message make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.. Is there something that I am doing incorrectly when trying to build? I am trying to build version 1.2.0 and am using windows 10.

I have seen that a possible reason for this error is because a make file is not being produced. I am not sure if that is the case here though

Hi @hudkinsnoah,

Even though you are not using Visual Studio, I assume you are using the Microsoft C++ compiler. In such a case the command to build JSBSim is

cmake --build . --config RelWithDebInfo

This command should be run from the build folder and will build all the libraries and executables under the folder build\RelWithDebInfo. Of course, if you want to get a debug (resp. release) build, you should replace RelWithDebInfo with Debug (resp. Release)

Thank you! I just wanted to double check if this is targeting 32 or 64 bit? Is there a place where all of the command arguments are listed that I could reference in order to find some more that might be helpful?

I actually was able to figure this out, thanks again!
