I've been looking for solutions, and honestly I'm stuck.
I'm trying to install Box2D, as you can see by the file paths.
Anyway, this prompt appears several times before the following:
The CXX compiler identification is unknown
Check for working CXX compiler: C:/MinGW/bin/g++.exe
Check for working CXX compiler: C:/MinGW/bin/g++.exe -- broken
CMake Error at C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.6/Modules/CMakeTestCXXCompiler.cmake:54 (message):
The C++ compiler "C:/MinGW/bin/g++.exe" is not able to compile a simple
test program.
It fails with the following output:

So, there's the error. I'm trying to install it on code::blocks with MinGW, I've currently got 2 copies of MinGW installed, one that's located in the code::blocks folder and the other is in my root drive, I installed MinGW seperately to fix this problem.
This is my first time using CMake, I'm trying to get it to work with my sfml project on code::blocks in C++.
Apologies if I missed anything, if you spot any information you'd need don't hesitate to comment!
Go to system variables and add
C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW\bin
to your path
