Question

I\'m trying make a Visual Studio solution with CMake to compile the latest version of aseprite and CMake keeps giving me the:

No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be fo         


        

Answer 1

I also experienced this error when working with CMake:

No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found.
No CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER could be found.

The 'warning' box in the MSDN library article Visual C++ in Visual Studio 2015 gave me the help that I needed.

Visual Studio 2015 doesn't come with C++ installed by default. So, creating a new C++ project will prompt you to download the necessary C++ components.
