Visual Studio 10 2010 — CMake 3.12.0 Documentation

# Visual Studio 10 2010

Generates Visual Studio 10 (VS 2010) project files.

The `CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set to specify a target platform name (architecture).

For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify a target platform name optionally at the end of this generator name:

`Visual Studio 10 2010 Win64`
  Specify target platform `x64`.
`Visual Studio 10 2010 IA64`
  Specify target platform `Itanium`.

For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.0, one may specify this generator using the name `Visual Studio 10` without the year component.

## 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.
