Failed during installation

[RobertoMantas]

I am compiling the code in macOS Mojave, and I am facing an issue.
Everything works correctly until the last step in the building process. Where I have to run "cmake --build . -j2". I get the following error:

Is this a common error with e predefined fix?

Thank you very much!

I haven't seen this issue offhand. If you use Homebrew, I would consider trying to build with Ninja

brew install ninja

or download and extract Ninja: https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/releases

then rebuild

cmake -B buildn -G Ninja

cmake --build buildn

I tried this via CI on Mac and saw the same problem. I don't have access to a Mac for several weeks due to current situation and other work needs. At least I can see the same issue.

I also tried the Ninja solution to build but it still has an error. I am not sure where the problem may be.

It's in getting the includes right in cmake but it's difficult to diagnose when I don't actually have a Mac. Unfortunately I don't expect to have one possibly for as long as a few months.
