title: Cmake Visual Studio 2013 error
body: <p>I am trying to run a simple program through cmake gui and I receive the following output. I am not really sure what the problem is and forgive me, because I am quite new to this.  I have also uninstalled and installed visual studio 2012 and 2013 to see if that would make a difference. I am using Visual Studio 2013 as the compiler and get the following configuration error. </p>
  
  <p>My environment is :<br/>
  Windows 7 enterprise 64 bit<br/>
  Cmake gui 2.8.12.2 <br/>
  Visual Studio 2013 Professional</p>
