I would welcome such an effort. Can you cite some examples of duplication that you have in mind to reduce? > In any case, was there a reason why the toolset is not part of the > generator name? i.e. "Visual Studio 11 Win64 V110". The platform never should have been part of the generator name either but that convention was established long ago. The version of VS and the target platform are orthogonal. So is the toolset, which is why -T is separate. Support to specify the PlatformToolset is pretty new so it has not fully matured yet. It can be set from cmake-gui by using the Add Entry button to add CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET prior to the first configuration. I would welcome an effort to add a dedicated field in the dialog for it, especially if it could be a drop-down selection of available toolsets. > additional settings which must be part of the project file We have some basic support for that: http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.12/cmake.html#prop_tgt:VS_GLOBAL_variable but it doesn't cover everything. -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
