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 :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set, perhaps
via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-A`` option, to specify a target platform
name (architecture). For example:
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" -A Win32``
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" -A x64``
* ``cmake -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 :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` option may be set, perhaps
via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-T`` option, to specify another toolset.
