I tried using cmake to build visual studio 2013 solution but it is throwing errors,probably compatibility issues.

Since we cannot see any of your code, and you have not expalined what the errors are, or where they occur, it is impossible to make any useful suggestions.

After extracting the zip from the above link ,got the below error ,on using cmake to build VS2013 sln

CMake Error at src/kj/CMakeLists.txt:82 (target_compile_features):
target_compile_features The compiler feature "cxx_generic_lambdas" is not
known to CXX compiler

The error message is clear, your compiler is not at a level that can handle the code you are trying to build. You should upgrade to Visual Studio 2022, the Community Edition is free from Microsoft.

We can only guess, but a good possibility is that you are using a different version of the compiler to the original author: go back to the site you got it from, and ask him what version he uses, then compare that and the release notes for it with yours.

Sorry, but we can't do any of that for you!
