Can you try this:


1. Create a new directory:
mkdir foo
2. Create a CMakeLists.txt file in foo
project(foo)
add_library(foo bar.c)

Create an empty file bar.c.

3. Create a build directory under foo:
mkdir build

4. run cmake

cd build
cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" ..


Great, it works this time and finds the compiler. However, I do not
understand why it does not work for my project directory?

Following is the output:

C:\cmaketest\foo\build>cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" ..

Stop.

This is normal.  There is not target named build.

C:\cmaketest\foo\build>nmake

Scanning dependencies of target foo

Works great.

Also, is there a CMakeCache.txt file in
C:/Work/PCT_LTE/Hercules/CID/MapperGenerator?

What is in the CMakeCache.txt in
C:\Work\PCT_LTE\Hercules\CID\MapperGenerator\build_nmake?



Yes, there is a CMakeCache.txt in this directory. The contents are as
below(Sorry, it is a big file):
# This is the CMakeCache file.
CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM:FILEPATH=CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM-NOTFOUND

Remove this CMakeCache.txt file, and re-run and it should work.

I would start with a clean build tree and source tree. If you have ever run cmake in-source, clean your source tree so that it has no generated stuff in it. Also, remove the entire build tree, then you should be fine.
