CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
Generator-specific target platform specification provided by user.
|
|
|
|
Some CMake generators support a target platform name to be given
|
|
to the native build system to choose a compiler toolchain.
|
|
If the user specifies a platform name (e.g. via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-A``
|
|
option) the value will be available in this variable.
|
|
|
|
The value of this variable should never be modified by project code.
|
|
A toolchain file specified by the :variable:`CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE`
|
|
variable may initialize ``CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM``. Once a given
|
|
build tree has been initialized with a particular value for this
|
|
variable, changing the value has undefined behavior.
|
|
|
|
Platform specification is supported only on specific generators:
|
|
|
|
* For :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` with VS 2005 and above this
|
|
specifies the target architecture.
|
|
|
|
* For :generator:`Green Hills MULTI` this specifies the target architecture.
|
|
|
|
See native build system documentation for allowed platform names.

Visual Studio Platform Selection
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
On :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` the selected platform name
|
|
is provided in the :variable:`CMAKE_VS_PLATFORM_NAME` variable.
