Re: [CMake] Visual Studios platform choice
When Visual Studio creates a project, by default it will create it for multiple architectures. When running through CMake, only 1 platform is generated. Therefore Visual Studio shows the platform options but only the available platforms are shown. We wrote a prototype to support creating multiple platforms for Windows Store apps in CMake a while back that’s available on https://github.com/Microsoft/CMake/tree/feature/MSMultiPlatform but hasn’t been updated in some time. There are issues with it as some things don’t port well when switching architectures.

I'm porting some linux based code to the Windows world, and the Windows dev showed me that in Visual Studio, platform choice is a pulldown menu at the top of the screen. This pulldown appears even if we run CMake without specifying a 64 bit platform. This is a bit confusing, because we've only generated a solution and project file for 32 bit. So what happens when someone selects 64 bit on the pulldown menu? What's being built?
