"cmake --build" could not build entire project

[davidshen84]

I build caffe after you instruction:

cmake --build .

At the end of the compilation, I got the following errors:

"C:\caffe-builder\build\ALL_BUILD.vcxproj" (default target) (1) ->
"C:\caffe-builder\build\Boost.vcxproj" (default target) (2) ->

    816 Warning(s)
    5 Error(s)

According to you instruction, they can be ignored. So, I assume I have finished the compilation successfully. However, I could not find a caffe.exe file, or any other file that could allow me to start working on the examples provided by caffe project.

However, if I execute:

msbuild caffe-builder.sln

I could get everything in .\install\bin.

This is strange. cmake --build . should translate to msbuild caffe-builder.sln or something close to that. I don't remember if I use the IDE or built from the command line.

I did a clean re-build, using msbuild only, and I noticed msbuild could not build everything at once. I think the problem is not caused by cmake --build .. I think the problem is project build dependency issue.

When I ran msbuild the first time, only part of the projects are build. Then I ran it again, and more files appeared in the ./install/bin directory. So I think some of the projects could not be build when I ran msbuild the first time.

The funny thing is that the error messages at the tail in the first run consists with the caveats you left on the README. So I think the first run completely succeed.
