I am having trouble building OpenEXR for windows 7 using CMake.
I am following directions described here
The cmd output after I run the cmake command is as follows:

This generates the solution with many projects, however, attempting to build project ALL_BUILDS fails.
I noticed all non-compiling projects (except for porject ilmimf) complain about
error LNK1181: cannot open input file '..\IlmImf\Release\IlmImf-2_2.lib'
Trying to build project IlmImf independently reports:
error MSB6006: "cmd.exe" exited with code -1073741515.
here is the full output for project ilmimf:

Note, I am running cmd and Visual Studio 2010 in administrator mode, tried compiling all configurations (debug, release, MinSizeRel, RelWithDebInfo) but nothing worked so far.
I had the exact same problem, though compiling for win32. It needs dlls in lib directory created after building ilmbase. So my solution was to add that folder to windows' system path and everything works perfectly fine.
