I cannot find a solution to manage how to use the langage CUDA in a CMake project on Windows with the standard MSVC 2019 compiler.
I am trying to configure and compile this hello-cmake-cuda repository (also described in this blog post).
CMakeLists.txt file contents:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.8 FATAL_ERROR)
project(hello LANGUAGES CXX CUDA)
enable_language(CUDA)
add_executable(hello hello.cu)
Here is the output to the cmake .. command, run from within the build directory:
PS C:\GitRepo\cuda_hello\build> cmake ..
-- Selecting Windows SDK version 10.0.18362.0 to target Windows 10.0.22000.
CMake Error at C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.23/Modules/CMakeDetermineCUDACompiler.cmake:311 (message):

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "C:/GitRepo/cuda_hello/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "C:/GitRepo/cuda_hello/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".
It means that architectures_tested from CMakeDetermineCUDACompiler.cmake:311 is empty...
How can I get CMake to complete its configuration and the simple program to build?
My development environment
Operating system: Windows 11 Version 10.0.22000 Build 22000
Compiler: Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019 Version 16.11.11
CMake version is 3.23
CUDA version is 11.6
I have tried different versions of each soft and keep having the same issue. I have decided to stay with these versions at the moment.
My GPU is properly configured: It shows up with nvidia-smi, and I am also able to build and run the deviceQuery CUDA sample:
CUDA Device Query (Runtime API) version (CUDART static linking)
Detected 1 CUDA Capable device(s)
Device 0: "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650"
CUDA Driver Version / Runtime Version 11.6 / 11.6
CUDA Capability Major/Minor version number: 7.5
etc. etc. ...
deviceQuery, CUDA Driver = CUDART, CUDA Driver Version = 11.6, CUDA Runtime Version = 11.6, NumDevs = 1
Result = PASS

What I've tried and hasn't worked
If I try to insert the wanted CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES :
set(CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES 75)
I get:

If I try to use the FindCUDA module to set CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES - the solution given by #alfC here - I get:

Edit 1:
Answer to #einpoklum solution this:
Thanks for the proposal but it doesn't work either.
Here is the output of the cmake -B build command in your repository:
PS C:\GitRepo\hello-cuda-cmake-master> cmake -B build

See also "C:/GitRepo/hello-cuda-cmake-master/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "C:/GitRepo/hello-cuda-cmake-master/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".
The output is the same using PowerShell or a MSVC command prompt.
Here are the cmake variables and their value when using cmake-gui:
When using the simple nvcc build command: nvcc hello.cu from MSVC command prompt I get:
nvcc fatal : Could not set up the environment for Microsoft Visual Studio using 'c:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2019/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.29.30133/bin/HostX86/x86/../../../../../../../VC/Auxiliary/Build/vcvars64.bat'
The PATH is valid though, and the script vcvars64.bat exists at this location.
What happens if I add the find_package(CUDAToolkit) to the CMakeLists.txt
The new CMakeLists.txt:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.18 FATAL_ERROR)
find_package(CUDAToolkit)
project(hello LANGUAGES CUDA)
add_executable(hello hello.cu)
The output :

Test passed
Beginning with CMake 3.18, we no longer use the FindCUDA.cmake module - neither directly nor via find_package(CUDA). This has been replaced with find_package(CUDAToolkit) (which used the FindCUDAToolkit.cmake module).
But actually, for your simple hello-world project - you don't even need to do that, since starting with CMake 3.8, CUDA is a "first-class citizen" language for CMake. Well, kind of. So, here's a CMakeLists.txt file you can use:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.18 FATAL_ERROR)
PROJECT(cuda_hello LANGUAGES CUDA)
add_executable(hello hello.cu)
I've tested this on a Windows 10 (Enterprise Evaluation) VM, using CUDA 11.6 and Visual Studio 16 (a.k.a. VS 2019).
Note: The version number in the cmake_minimum_required() line may be critical! With the version number at the cuda_hello repository - it doesn't work for me, since a CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES value is demanded to be present.
Now, after you configure using CMake, you can run ccmake, where you'll see the CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES value. Change it to what you want to use. Again, I'm offering you the simplest and most basic way to do things, not necessarily the fanciest and most robust.
I've set all of this up for you in a fork of the hello-cuda-cmake repository.
Try to add:
set(CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES 60 61 62 70 72 75 86)
set(CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER /usr/local/cuda-11.6/bin/nvcc)
check your CUDA arch in https://arnon.dk/matching-sm-architectures-arch-and-gencode-for-various-nvidia-cards/ and change the parameter of CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES.
And link the CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER to nvcc.
this is my full CMakeLists.txt:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.20 FATAL_ERROR)
set(CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES 60 61 62 70 72 75 86)
set(CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER /usr/local/cuda-11.6/bin/nvcc)
project(cudatest CUDA)
find_package(CUDAToolkit)
set(CMAKE_CUDA_STANDARD 14)
add_executable(cudatest main.cu)
set_target_properties(cudatest PROPERTIES
CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION ON)
My GPU is GeForce GTX 1660, CMake version 3.23, CUDA Version 11.6.
And this is a Docker image I made for developmenting some projects: https://github.com/GuangchenJ/cuda-dev, you can try to use it.

I had the same problem and I solved it by installing older version of CMake. More precisely: a version before 3.18.
Apparently CMake added first party language support for CUDA in 3.18 and that is where these nonsensical problems ("Try: indead") were coming from.
I'd appreciate if you help me to understand how should read and understand this error. I'd like to learn how to fix program by troubleshooting.

The compiler can be selected by using the CC and CXX variables, but by it's much more complicated than using the -G (generator) parameter. For one, the slashes in the path must be Unix style (/) and they don't take effect after the first time CMake configuration is ran unless the cache is cleared.
For a list of available generator options include the --help option
The paths to the Boost library must also use Unix style slashes (/). Many of the commands will convert Windows paths, but when passing in definitions at the command-line you'll want to always use Unix style paths.
Your command would change to the following:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64" -DBOOST_ROOT="C:/local/boost_1_56_0" -DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR="C:/local/boost_1_56_0/lib64-msvc-12.0" ..
You'll also want to make sure that your PATH environment variable is setup correctly for Visual Studio and x64. This can be done easily by opening a VS2013 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt using the command below:
cmd /k "%VS120CoMNTOOLS%\..\..\VC\vcvarsall.bat" amd64
In addition, you should make sure you're clearing out the cmake cache before you try. The easiest way to do this is to delete your cmake build folder, but you can also use the CMake-gui to clear the cache.

any advice?
Install the windows 7 SDK then install VC-Compiler-KB2519277. Fixed the issue for me.
Was having the same problem with CMake on win7x64. The problem relates to .NET 4.5. If you don't want to uninstall 4.5, and your Solution is already setup, make sure to disable incremental linking, otherwise you will not be able to build.
To fix your CMake issue, you will have to uninstall .NET 4.5 on your machine and re-install .NET 4.0 in order to get CMake to work (4.5 removes all of 4.0's assemblies, etc!)
Apparently can't install 4.0 while 4.5 is already installed, so use Windows Control Panel to do the uninstall (Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features)
CMake does not consider this a bug, rather it is a MS issue.
If you have Net framework 4.5 installed, you have to update VS 2010 to SP1 in order to make some stuff work correctly. Sometimes you can overcome the problem by just setting off incremental build in project Configurations > Linker settings. If you have VS 2012 installed after VS 2010, then before updating the VS 2010, you need to search at MSDN for the article about avoiding dependencies. My guess is that you will have to uninstall newer versions before upgrading the older ones to new service packs. There is a set of pages in MSDN explaining each step. Just google them. I also had this problem with CMake. This is how i solved it. Furthermore, i already had Windows 7 SDK installed. So i am not sure if it is needed to be installed to solve this problem or not.
In my case installing the VC2010 Service Pack 1 solved my issue after a reboot.
Didn't installed the Windows SDK 7.1 at all or anything else.
If you don't want to re-install .NET Frameworks and/or making 400mb Windows SDK updates, try this lighter solution first.
Currently following the CUDA Getting Started guide for Microsoft Windows [ http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-getting-started-guide-for-microsoft-windows/index.html ]; installed CUDA; the samples and NSight; im on Visual Studio 2010; I have checked my card and it supports CUDA. I followed the tutorials up to the demo parts... but I am getting the following error message:

I acknowledge that cin is part of iostream which i have verified is part of my include directive in my code...
I am coming from a web developer's background; I rarely program these types...
I'm assuming you've modified the bandwidthTest.cu file and this is not the vanilla SDK sample (since a quick check shows it doesn't use cin by default!).
You either need to use std::cin to explicitely state the scope or add a using namespace std or using std::cin to either the top of your file (after including iostream) or the top of the function.
Searching for info on namespaces should give more background, e.g. this tutorial.
If this isn't the problem, then post some code.
Update
From your it seems comment, your real question is how to create a CUDA project in VS2010. See this answer for information on that! Basically you need to create .cu files in your project and then tell Visual Studio what to do with them (i.e. enable the build customisation).
