CI fails with "Detected a mismatch for the compiler version between your conan profile"

[Michael Veksler]

Thank you for providing this starter project. Without it I would have likely not set-up something as comprehensive.

The issue: I could not make my project's CI work with visual studio, so I disabled the CI for VS.
Setting CONAN_DISABLE_CHECK_COMPILER, as suggested in the error message,
does not help as I could not find a way to pass it through to conan.
I would be grateful for a hint to the right direction to make CI work for VS.

The error text:

CMake Error at conanbuildinfo.cmake:403 (message):
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
  Detected a mismatch for the compiler version between your conan profile

  settings and CMake:

  Compiler version specified in your conan profile: 17

  Compiler version detected in CMake: 19.31

  Please check your conan profile settings (conan profile show
  [default|your_profile_name])

  P.S.  You may set CONAN_DISABLE_CHECK_COMPILER CMake variable in order to
  disable this check.
