* VS: Select and save a VS 2017 instance persistentlyBrad King2017-10-191-7/+11
| | | | | | | | | | Visual Studio 2017 supports multiple instances installed on a single machine. We use the Visual Studio Installer tool to enumerate instances and select one. Once we select an instance for a given build tree, save the result in `CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE` so we can re-configure the tree with the same instance on future re-runs of CMake. Fixes: #17268
* VS: Choose VS 2017 instance via environment variableBrad King2017-07-101-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | In the `Visual Studio 15 2017` generator, if the `VS150COMNTOOLS` environment variable points at a specific VS 2017 instance reported by the Visual Studio Installer tool, use that as the preferred instance. Inspired-by: Iyyappa Murugandi <iyyappam@microsoft.com> Fixes: #16846

The final name of this VS version was announced: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/2016/11/16/visual-studio-2017-rc/ Add the year to the generator name accordingly. For convenience, map the name without the year to the name with the year.
