Visual Studio 14 2015
---------------------

Generates Visual Studio 14 (VS 2015) project files.

The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set
to specify a target platform name.

For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify
a target platform name optionally at the end of this generator name:

``Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64``
  Specify target platform ``x64``.

``Visual Studio 14 2015 ARM``
  Specify target platform ``ARM``.
VS: Rename VS 14 generator to 'Visual Studio 14 2015' Now that we know the year component of this VS version we can add it to the generator name. For convenience, map the name without the year to the name with the year. 2014-11-14 14:21:50 -05:00			`Visual Studio 14 2015`
			`---------------------`
VS14: Add Visual Studio 14 generator (#14982) Call the generator "Visual Studio 14" without any year because this version of VS does not provide a year in the product name. Copy cmGlobalVisualStudio12Generator to cmGlobalVisualStudio14Generator and update version numbers accordingly. Add the VS14 enumeration value. Teach the platform module Windows-MSVC to set MSVC14 and document the variable. Teach module InstallRequiredSystemLibraries to look for the VS 14 runtime libraries. Teach tests CheckCompilerRelatedVariables, VSExternalInclude, and RunCMake.GeneratorToolset to treat VS 14 as they do VS 10, 11, and 12.

VS: Implement CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM for VS >= 8 For VS generator names that do not specify the platform name, read CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM to get it. Extend the RunCMake.GeneratorPlatform test with a case covering use of the x64 platform when the test generator is a Visual Studio generator whose name does not specify a platform. 2014-09-05 14:53:01 -04:00			The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set
