CMake Error while trying to build a uf2 file for the Raspberry Pi Pico

Time:11-28

While trying to execute the cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" .. command I'm getting the error CMake Error: Error required internal CMake variable not set, cmake may not be built correctly# multiple times.

The CMakeLists.txt:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.12)

project(nrf CXX)

include(pico_sdk_import.cmake)


pico_sdk_init()


add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME}
src/main.cpp

CodePudding user response:

The Pico SDK contains targets that are build with both C and assembler source code.

Because you have limited the project to C only with your project command, CMake will not check for and configure a C compiler or assembler .

The simplest solution is simply to add those languages to the list in your project command:

project(nrf CXX C ASM)
