vs2019 ------ * The :generator:`Visual Studio 16 2019` generator was added. This is experimental and based on "Visual Studio 2019 Preview 1.1" because this version of VS has not been released. The VS 2019 generator differs from generators for earlier versions in that it does not provide variants that specify the target platform in the generator name. Instead :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` must be used, e.g. through the ``-A`` command-line option. Furthermore, the default target platform (architecture) is now based on the *host* platform.
