Error when compiling on Windows

[AlexisHuvier]

Hey, i want to use rust-qt but when i launch a basic example i have this error :

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:5 (project):
  The CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:

    C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2019/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.25.28610/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe

  is not a full path to an existing compiler tool.

  To use the NMake generator with Visual C++, cmake must be run from a shell
  that can use the compiler cl from the command line.  This environment is
  unable to invoke the cl compiler.  To fix this problem, run cmake from the
  Visual Studio Command Prompt (vcvarsall.bat).

  Tell CMake where to find the compiler by setting either the environment
  variable "CXX" or the CMake cache entry CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to the full path
  to the compiler, or to the compiler name if it is in the PATH.

Your first error says:

To use the NMake generator with Visual C++, cmake must be run from a shell
  that can use the compiler cl from the command line.  This environment is
  unable to invoke the cl compiler.  To fix this problem, run cmake from the
  Visual Studio Command Prompt (vcvarsall.bat).

Make sure you're running cargo from the Visual Studio Command Prompt.

In your second error, cmake is using the Visual Studio compiler and MinGW's linker. Those are not compatible. Your rust toolchain, C++ toolchain, and Qt version must use the same vendor (MSVC or MinGW). MSVC is recommended, as MinGW builds aren't tested.

Perhaps the Setting up page of the guide will be helpful.

I have an other error :

You should remove MinGW paths from environment variables in your prompt. MinGW cannot be used together with MSVC, and something in your environment causes cmake to use D:\MinGW\bin\ld.exe.

[AlexisHuvier]

I remove MinGW paths but cmake use D:\MinGW\bin\ld.exe... How to remove that ?

[Riateche]

I don't know. Maybe this issue is related. Do you have the latest cmake installed? The set command prints all environment variables, so you can run it and check for MinGW paths in them.

[AlexisHuvier]

I remove MinGW Path from set command and i use the latest cmake, but same error...

[LordMZTE]

im having the same issue. cmake is also using mingw, however i removed it from my env variables already and when i simply run ld it is not finding anything.

[SinsofSloth]

I remove MinGW Path from set command and i use the latest cmake, but same error...

@AlexisHuvier your CMake is still using VS 2019. Check your env variables for CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH and QT5_DIR and make sure it's configured for MSVC 2017. Clear your /target of your work directory--if you built previously-- so ritual can generate a new solution.

I remove MinGW Path from set command and i use the latest cmake, but same error...

restart your computor ,and Re Extract the original code zip file to a new file and recompile the project...this way works on my computer
