Cmake error when building OpenCV

I'm trying to build OpenCV with Cmake on Windows 7. I chose to use the Visual Studio 10 compiler.

I'm getting the following error:

CMake Error at C:/Program Files (x86)/CMake 2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/CMakeCXXInformation.cmake:37 (get_filename_component):

get_filename_component called with incorrect number of arguments Call Stack (most recent call first): CMakeLists.txt:2 (PROJECT)

I'm sure the path to OpenCV is correct and I haven't made any changes to CMakeLists.txt Can anyone please guide me as to how to fix this error?

Thanks in advance!!

I'm refering to OpenCV-2.4.5. Thanks!

But it appears that the same problem accurs in cv 2.4.4 also. I'm following this manual: http://mil.ufl.edu/5666/classes/Installing_And_Using_OpenCV.pdf

What am I doing wrong?

I would suggest trying to select your C and CXX compilers yourself. It gave me a lot of problems with compiling. Follow this link: http://answers.opencv.org/question/13490/cmake-opencv249-master-branch-windows-7-x64/
