Well am using windows and I have visual studio 10 installed. I checked the Tools and it is VS10 

:( Any other ideas where this error is generated from?

Shall I re-install Cmake?

My guess is that you run cmake in a shell or a Windows
command prompt which does not have cl.exe  (that is the compiler)
in the PATH.

Start-> All Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 -> Visual Studio Tools -> Visual Studio Command Prompt

gives you the right command prompt.



In case you use cygwin add

@echo Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 tools.
@call "c:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/vcvarsall.bat" amd64

to cygwin.bat

The C compiler "cl" is not able to compile a simple test program.

It fails with the following output:

   That is all right. You can compile 32 bits programs on a x64
   Windows. Make
   sure you do install or compile 32 bits binaries of all dependencies.
