Unable to compile NvPipe on Windows 10

[Suhail]

My goal is to successfully compile NvPipe on Windows 10 to include it in a project.

Here's the error I get:

1>------ Skipped Build: Project: ZERO_CHECK, Configuration: Debug x64 ------
1>Project not selected to build for this solution configuration 
2>------ Build started: Project: NvPipe, Configuration: Debug x64 ------
2>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'C:\Users\digit\Desktop\workspace\NvPipe\build\CMakeFiles\NvPipe.dir\src\Debug\NvPipe_generated_NvPipe.cu.obj'
2>Done building project "NvPipe.vcxproj" -- FAILED.
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 1 skipped ==========

That file does not exist for me:

Environment:

OS Name:                   Microsoft Windows 10 Home
OS Version:                10.0.17134 N/A Build 17134
System Type:               x64-based PC

Include dirs: http://prntscr.com/n1peud

I began setting up compilation via: cmake ../ -D NVPIPE_WITH_OPENGL=OFF

Are you building with Visual Studio?

You might want to set your build output settings to diagnostic, and rebuild again.

That was helpful. The solution was to ignore the instructions in the readme & use Visual Studio -> Open with CMake and use these settings: #54 (comment)

Add correct GLEW paths from vcpkg
