- - Run the CMake GUI.

- - Set the source code path to C:\LyX\lyx-21
- Set the build path to C:\LyX\lyx-21-build

+ - Open the "Developer Command Prompt for VS2015" from the
+ "Visual Studio 2015\Visual Studio Tools" subfolder of the start menu.

+ Alternatively, you can create a .bat file that first contains the line
+ call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86
+ and then calls the CMake GUI and use this .bat file to start CMake.
+ This is for building a 32bit LyX, if you want to build a 64bit LyX replace
+ 'x86' by 'amd64'.
+ The MSVC 2015 command prompt or vcvarsall.bat set some environment
+ variables that are needed for CMake to find the compiler.

+ Set the build path to C:\LyX\lyx-23-build
+ Click Configure and set the generator to "Visual Studio 14 2015" to
