This issue breaks CMake generation for CMake 3.15.1 Visual Studio 2019 using the Intel Compiler 2019 u4 toolset
The error shows in CMake as
$ cmake ../ -G"Visual Studio 16 2019" -T"Intel C++ Compiler 19.0"
-- Selecting Windows SDK version 10.0.17763.0 to target Windows 10.0.18362.
-- The C compiler identification is unknown
-- The CXX compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (project):
No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found.
Works fine for Visual Studio 2017
$ cmake ../ -G"Visual Studio 15 2017" -T"Intel C++ Compiler 19.0"
-- Selecting Windows SDK version 10.0.17763.0 to target Windows 10.0.18362.
