Sorry for the delay. I went on vacation a few days after emailing about this issue then forgot to check back when I returned.. If I click on a .sln it picks the wrong version of Visual Studio as well so this is not a CMake issue.

[CMake] CMake 3.7.0-r2 Open Project sometimes picks wrong version of Visual Studio
I opened a project in cmake-gui using the open project button from a vc 2010 build of a project. The open project opened the project in Visual Studio 2010. Later I opened the same project but a different build tree for Visual Studio 2013 CMake-gui had all of the correct information for the Visual Studio 2013 build but open project tried to open the Visual Studio 2013 solution in Visual Studio 2010 instead of the expected Visual Studio 2013. Is there a way to get/force this feature to reliably use the correct ide?

BTW, I usually run cmake-gui from a visual studio command prompt. The reason for this is I use more than visual studio compiler and also use 32 and 64 bit in different build trees so I have command prompts with different environment variables set that help cmake to find the correct libraries for the build tree that I am currently using.

This way I can build for different compiler versions, 32/64 bit and different versions of libraries like this. Inside the root of each build tree there is a link to the appropriate Visual Studio command prompt that has its default folder set to the build tree root. Also in the root there is a batch file that sets quite a few _DIR environment variables to help cmake find the correct compiled libraries. This has worked well for the 5 or so years that I have done it this way. I do not use INSTALL targets so none of the binaries end up in Program Files.

Outside of the few CMAKE variables that are set for the compiler that would be wrong the biggest problem I believe would be libraries. You can not link a x64 library with a 32 bit program so CMake would have to track what libraries were x64 versus 32bit which may seem like just adding additional configurations over Release,Debug ... would solve but that will not work with the way finders work. Also I do not believe CMake supports this configuration on any other platform.

If I need to debug deeply into a Qt problem I will switch to use the Debug build however most of the time for itk or vtk I want to use RelWithDebInfo to debug since these tend to be slow to Debug in Debug mode that is when I use dicom images that are similar resolution to what my programs typically use.

I am not sure about recommended however I build vtk from the command line via a Visual Studio command prompt. I first configure VTK to turn off shared libraries because I want to avoid having to copy dlls around. cmake --build PathToBuildFolderForVTK --config Debug cmake --build PathToBuildFolderForVTK --config Release cmake --build PathToBuildFolderForVTK --config RelWithDebInfo After that I do not install VTK. Since the INSTALL will only install a single configuration. I instead point my own projects that use cmake to use the vtk build folder as VTK_DIR and CMake is happy to set it up so that my debug configurations will use debug vtk libs and my release applications will use release vtk libs.

Re: [CMake] How to get Visual Studio to use more than a single core for compiling
> Right, perhaps complex inter-project dependencies halt the processes. I believe this is part of the reason. Projects like ITK with hundreds of small utilities tend to utilize the cores after the dependent libraries are built however my code that has very few utilities and significantly more inter-project dependencies do not tend to make good use of the cores. On top of that it appears that VS building slows down significantly as the # of include folders greatly increases. This cuts into CPU utilization when the OS searches your includes for your header files. In the past I have tried to get around the inter-project dependency problem by building Release, Debug and RelWithDebInfo in 3 separate processes only to find that on some builds this did not fix the issue because the OS spent an a large portion of the build time searching the include paths. I even tried to stop this by placing the projects and includes on a RAM disk but even that did not totally fix the issue.

Then add qextserialport to your TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES. This time just use qextserialport since it is not a variable but a target. You will also have to add a entry to your include_directories for the location of the .h file in this subdirectory.

You can get the source and build a 64 bit cmake however that does not really give you anything more than the 32 bit version does. Its not like you need 4GB of ram to create your projects.

The default configuration in Visual Studio is Debug so that is why debug is selected. There are many ways around this: 1. You could reduce the configurations that CMake creates down just to the one you want. 2. Do batch building. I do this option. Look at the cmake --build command 3. Use nmake makefiles (I believe) 4.
