I use CMake 3.18 with CLion 2020.2.5 and want to use Clang as CUDA compiler. I do with this with the following two lines at the top of my CMakeLists.txt :
set(CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID Clang)
set(CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER ${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER})
And it works very well for the code, and I also CLion seems to be able to work with the code just fine. But it still complains while configuring the project:
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /home/mu/project
Problems were encountered while collecting compiler information:
    Unexpected compiler output. This compiler might be unsupported.
    If you are using GCC/Clang, please report the bug in https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/CPP.
In the error log I find this:
Checking whether the CUDA compiler is NVIDIA using "" did not match "nvcc: NVIDIA \(R\) Cuda compiler driver":
clang version 11.0.0 (Fedora 11.0.0-2.fc33)
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin
In the output log it seems that it can identify the compiler just fine:
Checking whether the CUDA compiler is Clang using "" matched "(clang version)":

The CUDA compiler identification is Clang, found in "/home/mu/project/CMakeFiles/3.18.4/CompilerIdCUDA/a.out"
How can I resolve with issue between CMake and CLion?
