Brad King	15e211df80	Help: Suggest using -A to specify platform for VS generators ... We already suggest `-T` for the toolset. Create a dedicated section for platform selection and suggest `-A`. Provide examples.	2018-09-25 06:52:35 -04:00
Jean-Christophe Fillion-Robin	a82eb539f0	Help: Describe the type of Visual Studio projects that can be generated ... Issue: #17956 See-also: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51647437/use-cmake-to-generate-visual-studio-python-projects/51666488	2018-08-09 10:58:29 -04:00
Brad King	d079e71c29	VS: Provide an option to use x64 host tools ... Visual Studio provides toolchains that are themselves built for 32-bit or 64-bit host architectures. By default it uses the 32-bit tools, but it can be told to prefer the 64-bit tools on 64-bit hosts. Extend the `CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` specification to provide a way to request use of the 64-bit host tools. Closes: #15622	2016-10-14 09:22:26 -04:00

Brad King	f5afb90d7c	VS: Rename VS 14 generator to 'Visual Studio 14 2015' ... Now that we know the year component of this VS version we can add it to the generator name. For convenience, map the name without the year to the name with the year.	2014-11-14 14:23:36 -05:00
