I'm using cmake-GUI on windows, generating for codelite, to build a simple "hello world" project (https://github.com/jameskbride/cmake-hello-world). I'm trying to use cygwin compilers but when I run the build command, I got the following error:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /C C:/cygwin64/bin/make.exe -j 0
----------Building project:[ Debugging - Debug ]----------
make: the '-j' option requires a positive integer argument
Usage: make [options] [target] ...

Why it is happening?!?

My cygwin folder is in PATH. In cygwin terminal the project works.

Your project was generated by CMake - this means that the project is set to custom project so the command to execute (in your case make -j0) is set in the Project Settings->Customize->Custom build page.

On that page you have several entries with different titles (Build, Clean etc) Double click each entry so it will open in Edit mode and remove the -j0 option

This looks like a bug in CodeLite - CMake generator
