How do I compile MySQL Connector C++ with MinGW-W64? - mysql

Question

I am attempting to compile the MySQL Connector CPP version 8.0.20.
Source code from https://github.com/mysql/mysql-connector-cpp. (Downloaded 2020-May-24)
Following instructions at https://forums.mysql.com/read.php?117,426293,426927.
Step 3 of compiling produced the following command output:
e:\cpp\Lib\MySQL>cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles"
CMake Warning:
No source or binary directory provided. Both will be assumed to be the
same as the current working directory, but note that this warning will
become a fatal error in future CMake releases.

CMakeError.log
All files in the /CMakeTmp directory, referenced in CMakeError.log, have been deleted by the script so I can't analyze them.
Main question:
How do I fix this to finally produce the desired build files so I can move on to the next step?
Additional questions:
Where does the referenced src.cxx, and, by extension, the src.cxx.obj, file come from?
How do I eliminate the SSL error, as shown in the command output? Re:

UPDATE #1
Now using MSYS2 with MinGW-w64. The missing SSL error is eliminated.
New error at the Make step:

New command output.
There is no mysql_ps_resultset.cpp to edit, as referenced in Step 4.
