+Visual Studio 11 2012
+---------------------
+
+Generates Visual Studio 11 (VS 2012) project files.
+
+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.  Other types of
+projects (JavaScript, 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 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 :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-T`` option, to specify another toolset.
