mgba: Visual Studio CMake errors

Hello,

I’m getting CMake errors.

Some details:

I’m using the most recent build, I assume. I cloned the repository today. I’m not sure where to find the build version number. I looked around for it on this github repository.

I’m on Windows 10, 64-bit

Graphics Card: AMD Radeon ™ R9 380 Series

I was following the Visual Studio building instructions on the front page: https://github.com/mgba-emu/mgba

I installed these: vcpkg install ffmpeg[vpx,x264] libepoxy libpng libzip lua sdl2 sqlite3

and I installed these: vcpkg install qt5-base qt5-multimedia

This took about four hours total. I think that all went well.

I then used Visual Studio to clone the project from here https://github.com/mgba-emu/mgba.git. That worked fine.

Finally, I got to the CMake part and in Visual Studio it gave the output I show below.

It says it couldn’t find the epoxy module. It says “Windows requires epoxy module!” I don’t normally use CMake to build Visual Studio projects. I mean, I have used CMake on the command line, but not within Visual Studio. I also assumed this would be 32-bit build. VS seems to want a 64-bit build.

I wonder if anyone knows what I’m doing wrong here.
