Error while compiling with cmake: cannot find -ldwmapi - c

Edit: Im using MinGW-x86_64 on windows
When Im trying to compile a gtk+ 3 c project with cmake, I have this error message on the log:
"C:\Program Files\JetBrains\CLion 2017.1.3\bin\cmake\bin\cmake.exe" --build C:\Users\Jonas\ClionProjects\tutorial\cmake-build-debug --target tutorial -- -j 4

This is my CMakeLists.txt, in there I added gtk3 and its libraries, but when Im trying to compile, it has the errors mentioned before.
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.7)
project(tutorial)
set(CMAKE_C_STANDARD 99)
set(SOURCE_FILES main.c)
set(PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE "C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/pkg-config.exe")

dwmapi.dll is provided only for Vista. So I guess that it is a bug of package of gtk+-3.0. And -ldwmapi is not required for your OS. Below is a workaround to fix this issue. I don't make sure this will solve your issue. Note that this is self-responsibility.
make backup-copy of gdk-3.0.pc, gdk-broadway-3.0.pc, gdk-win32-3.0.pc in C:\msys64\mingw64\lib\pkgconfig
open those files in vim, remove -ldwmapi and :wq
UPDATE
Let's create libdwmapi.a
download def file from here
dlltool -d dwmapi.def -l libdwmapi.a

Did you setup the toolchain in CLion after you installed both MinGW and CLion?
File > Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Toolchains
CLion can normally autodetect the compilers that it knows about, however I believe that it still has to be told which compiler to look for at first.

Using cmake with a shared (dynamic) library

I'm trying to use a simple shared library that I made with a file that just contains a main method.
I first ran cmake . which worked fine and didn't return any errors.
Then I ran make but got this error:
$ make

The library exists inside of /usr/local/lib/ as libhello-user.dll.a
Note: Im using Cygwin for cmake and make
Turning my comment into an answer
See CMake/Tutorials/Exporting and Importing Targets.
You either have:
to name a full path for the library
CMake is not searching for it automatically
you would have to add something like find_library(_lib_path NAMES hello-user)
or - better - put those into an IMPORTED target
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.8)
project(LIB_EXAMPLE)
add_library(hello-user SHARED IMPORTED GLOBAL)
set_target_properties(
hello-user
PROPERTIES
IMPORTED_LOCATION /usr/local/lib/libhello-user.dll
IMPORTED_IMPLIB /usr/local/lib/libhello-user.dll.a
)
add_executable(myprog main.c)
target_link_libraries(myprog hello-user)

Failed to build C code by using generated NDK toolchain

I am working on build a c library for android 5.1.1.
First I build a standalone toolchain by following the google ndk standalone toolchain guild.
<prebuilt_ndk_r12b_path>/build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh --platform=android-22 --ndk-dir=<prebuilt_ndk_r12b_path> --install-dir=/home/r0ng/utilities/ndk --toolchain=x86_64-linux-android-4.9
After that, I exported CC, AR and RANLIB in ~/.bashrc
export ANDROID_NDK=/home/r0ng/utilities/ndk
SYSROOT=$ANDROID_NDK/sysroot
export CC="$ANDROID_NDK/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc-4.9.x --sysroot=$SYSROOT"
export AR="$ANDROID_NDK/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc-ar --sysroot=$SYSROOT"
export RANLIB="$ANDROID_NDK/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc-ranlib --sysroot=$SYSROOT"
But when I tried to compile by using cmake ... I had the following errors:
-- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.9.0
-- The CXX compiler identification is GNU 4.9.3
-- Check for working C compiler: /home/r0ng/utilities/ndk/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc

It seems that the compiler is unable to find "crtbegin_dynamic.o", "crtend_android.o", "libc" neither "libdl". But when I checked, those files are all in the folder $HOME/utilities/ndk/sysroot/usr/lib. And I already set the --sysroot in CC, AR and RANLIB.
Update 1 :
After changed the toolchain generation command based on Dan Albert's comment, The command cmake .. is able to be run successfully. But when I run make . I got following error:

Thanks,
Environment:
OS: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
gcc / g++: 4.9.3
AOSP: 5.1.1_r30
NDK: android-ndk-r12b
cmake: 3.5.1
If you want to use cmake, you don't need a standalone toolchain. Android Studio natively supports cmake now: http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/external-c-builds
NDK r13 (not released yet) will also ship a cmake toolchain file for using cmake directly (the method shown in https://stackoverflow.com/a/5099229/632035).
You shouldn't add --sysroot= explicitly. Standalone toolchain already knows about proper one.

Basic Cmake and make on Mac OS Maverick for C

I'm a complete beginner in using Cmake to compile my own C code and I'm running Mac OS X Mavericks.
My problem is as follow. For my intro to Cmake, created a folder containing the following folders
bin/
build/
src/
fonctions.h
fonctions.c
main.c
Here my CMakeLists.txt file:
project(Addition)
add_executable(
bin/addition
src/main.c
src/fonctions.h
src/fonctions.c
)
When I run:
$ cmake . -G "Unix Makefiles"
and then make from my root folder, no problem.
But when I run:
$ cmake .. -G "Unix Makefiles"
and then make from my /build folder I got this error message:
Linking C executable bin/addition
ld: can't open output file for writing: bin/addition, errno=2 for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[2]: *** [bin/addition] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/bin/addition.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
Anyone knows why?
Remove bin/ from your add_executable and use CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to change your build location
add_executable(
addition
src/main.c
src/fonctions.h
src/fonctions.c
)
