| Visual Studio 11 2012 |
| --------------------- |
| |
| Deprecated. Generates Visual Studio 11 (VS 2012) project files. |
| |
| .. note:: |
| This generator is deprecated and will be removed in a future version |
| of CMake. It will still be possible to build with VS 11 2012 tools |
| using the :generator:`Visual Studio 12 2013` (or above) generator |
| with :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` set to ``v110``, or by |
| using the :generator:`NMake Makefiles` generator. |
| |
| For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.0, one may specify this |
| generator using the name "Visual Studio 11" without the year component. |
| |
| Project Types |
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| Only Visual C++ and C# projects may be generated (and Fortran with |
| Intel compiler integration). Other types of projects (JavaScript, |
| Database, Website, etc.) are not supported. |
| |
| Platform Selection |
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| The default target platform name (architecture) is ``Win32``. |
| |
| .. versionadded:: 3.1 |
| The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set, perhaps |
| via the :option:`cmake -A` option, to specify a target platform |
| name (architecture). For example: |
| |
| * ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 11 2012" -A Win32`` |
| * ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 11 2012" -A x64`` |
| * ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 11 2012" -A ARM`` |
| * ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 11 2012" -A <WinCE-SDK>`` |
| (Specify a target platform matching a Windows CE SDK name.) |
| |
| 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 11 2012 Win64`` |
| Specify target platform ``x64``. |
| |
| ``Visual Studio 11 2012 ARM`` |
| Specify target platform ``ARM``. |
| |
| ``Visual Studio 11 2012 <WinCE-SDK>`` |
| Specify target platform matching a Windows CE SDK name. |
| |
| Toolset Selection |
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| The ``v110`` toolset that comes with Visual Studio 11 2012 is selected by |
| default. The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` option may be set, perhaps |
| via the :option:`cmake -T` option, to specify another toolset. |
