Visual Studio 16 2019
---------------------
.. versionadded:: 3.14
Generates Visual Studio 16 (VS 2019) project files.
Project Types
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Only Visual C++ and C# projects may be generated (and Fortran with
Intel compiler integration). Other types of projects (JavaScript,
Powershell, Python, etc.) are not supported.
Instance Selection
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
VS 2019 supports multiple installations on the same machine. The
:variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE` variable may be used to select one.
Platform Selection
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The default target platform name (architecture) is that of the host
and is provided in the :variable:`CMAKE_VS_PLATFORM_NAME_DEFAULT` variable.
The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set, perhaps
via the :option:`cmake -A` option, to specify a target platform
name (architecture). For example:
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A Win32``
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64``
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A ARM``
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A ARM64``
Toolset Selection
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ``v142`` toolset that comes with Visual Studio 16 2019 is selected by
default. The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` option may be set, perhaps
via the :option:`cmake -T` option, to specify another toolset.
.. |VS_TOOLSET_HOST_ARCH_DEFAULT| replace::
By default this generator uses the 64-bit variant on x64 hosts and
the 32-bit variant otherwise.
.. include:: VS_TOOLSET_HOST_ARCH.txt
