I've been experimenting with Gluon's client maven plugin on a Windows machine for a project of mine. I decided to try out one of their "hello world" examples, here. I followed all of the steps on how to configure the machine.
However, I've encountered some errors. For some reason, the compiling always fails and gives me an error "Cannot run program "cl"". Does anyone have any clue on how to fix this?
I am running the client:build command in a "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2019" window.
The logs are below:
java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "cl" (in directory "C:\Users\Evan\Documents\client-samples\Maven\HelloFXML\target\client\x86_64-windows\gvm\hellofxml"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

I've had the same two issues:
Make sure the system path contains the Visual Studio entry. Something like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.25.28610\bin\HostX64\x64"
Visual Studio seems to miss the entry on the path variable sometimes on installation. I had it installed to a different directory. That might cause the problem.
The documentation states that you have to run all maven or gradle commands in the Native Tools Command Prompt if running on Windows. I missed that part a few times while reading the docs.
If you are running on Windows, you need to run all the Client goals from an x64 terminal.
After that i was able to use the client:compile and client:link goals.
