Visual Studio 10 2010¶
Generates Visual Studio 10 (VS 2010) project files.
For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.0, one may specify this
generator using the name Visual Studio 10 without the year component.
Project Types¶
Only Visual C++ and C# projects may be generated. Other types of projects (Database, Website, etc.) are not supported.
Platform Selection¶
The default target platform name (architecture) is Win32.
The CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM variable may be set, perhaps
via the cmake(1) -A option, to specify a target platform
name (architecture). For example:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" -A Win32cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" -A x64cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" -A Itanium
For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify a target platform name optionally at the end of the generator name. This is supported only for:
Visual Studio 10 2010 Win64- Specify target platform
x64. Visual Studio 10 2010 IA64- Specify target platform
Itanium.
Toolset Selection¶
The v100 toolset that comes with Visual Studio 10 2010 is selected by
default. The CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET option may be set, perhaps
via the cmake(1) -T option, to specify another toolset.
