A problem of using cmake and dpcpp

[Xuwen_T_Intel]

Hi,

I found the dpcpp compiler was always overridden by the MSVC, when I used CMAKE (ver. 3.21.2) or CMAKE_GUI to make a project. Please take a look at the attached file. Is there a way that can handle this problem?

From some essays, it was said that the project() statement in the CMake uses MSBuild, which automatically compute the values of  CMAKE_{C,CXX}_COMPILER. After tried the methods that I can think, I found the problem was still there.  Thanks for feedback and helps here.

In order to use CMake with DPC++ on Windows platform, two supported generators are Microsoft Visual Studio* and Make/Ninja.

Please reference this guide:
