Unable to compile x265-2.9 version code on MSYS2 32 bit

[Dinesh Gupta]

Hi All,

I downloaded the x265-2.9 source code and tried to build on MSYS2 with MSVC 2017 community edition on Window 10.

While compiling the code got error

    # ./make-Makefiles.sh
-- cmake version 3.13.1
CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:10 (cmake_policy):
  The OLD behavior for policy CMP0025 will be removed from a future version
  of CMake.

  The cmake-policies(7) manual explains that the OLD behaviors of all
  policies are deprecated and that a policy should be set to OLD only under
  specific short-term circumstances.  Projects should be ported to the NEW
  behavior and not rely on setting a policy to OLD.

Please help me to resolve this.

Also, I need help, how we can use MSVC's 'cl' instead of 'gcc' & 'g++'. Is there any way to achieve .
