+Platform Selection
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+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 12 2013" -A Win32``
+* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" -A x64``
+* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" -A ARM``
+
+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 12 2013 Win64``
+ Specify target platform ``x64``.
+
+``Visual Studio 12 2013 ARM``
+ Specify target platform ``ARM``.
