I spent now another few hours to get LyX 2_0_x branch to compile with CMake.
I started from a clean SVN tree and followed exactly the file Install.Win32.

There are 3 problems:

1. a LyX.exe file is compiled, but at the end of the compilation process MSVC 
complains telling me

D:\LyXSVN\LyX2.0.x\compile-result\Debug\ALL_BUILD
cannot find file

But thee is no such directory, there is only this one:
D:\LyXSVN\LyX2.0.x\compile-result\Win32\Debug\ALL_BUILD

But even when I specify this one for the ALL_BUILD component, I cannot run the 
compiled LyX.


2. I can also not debug the compiled LyX because CMake does not create a folder named "Resources" and copy there the content of SVN's "lib" folder. Therefore when I want to debug the LyX component, I get an error message that the Resources folder is missing. Sure, I can create this filder by myself, but I expect CMake to do this for me and to update the folder's content when a file in SVN's lib folder is changed (like SCons does).


3. I cannot disable the CMake component "DOC". It is annoying that the compiler always stumbles over this component. I can of course delete it from the solution file, but I fear that this will break something
When I compile LyX's trunk, CMake doesn't have this DOC component.


Peter, Kornel, can you please help me?
thanks and regards Uwe
