CMake instructions fail to configure and generate the xcode project.

i also have this problem on macos mojave v. 10.14.5

my steps:

  • opened xcode version 10.3
  • brew install cmake: installed cmake version 3.15.1
  • downloaded source code from http://www.opengl-tutorial.org/download/ (Tutorials source code on GitHub, .zip). unzipped to ~/Downloads/
  • downloaded cmake .dmg (cmake-3.15.1-Darwin-x86_64.dmg)
  • opened cmake
  • Where is the source code: /Users/name/Downloads/ogl-master/distrib
  • Where to build the binaries: /Users/name/Documents/some/folders/build
  • clicked configure, i dont remember quite well the dialog box that showed up but i chose xcode in the drop down menu & left the first check box checked and the remaining three unchecked
  • clicked done, dialog box popped up saying Error in configuration process, project files may be invalid
  • values shown:

CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:

contain a literal, direct call to the project() command. Add a line of
code such as

project(ProjectName)

near the top of the file, but after cmake_minimum_required().

CMake is pretending there is a "project(Project)" command on the first
line.

Hi everyone, I also get this issue. Do you know if a solution has been documented somewhere? Thanks a lot.

Update: found on this random page through a Google search. This did it for me:
sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
