the above error is been there while compiling. this string is not there in the workspace. what to do?

Which instructions have you been following? You might want to start again from scratch, following the instructions in https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/pico/getting-started-with-pico.pdf ? (There have been a lot of changes to pico-sdk recently https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-sdk/releases/tag/2.0.0 )

Yeah, i have no idea what you are even trying to do.

what command are you running/have run? That compilation bears no relation to anything that is even plausible.

closing as no response

In my case I was missing the following:

# initialize the SDK based on PICO_SDK_PATH
# note: this must happen before project()
include(pico_sdk_import.cmake)
