-Visual Studio 15 2017
----------------------
-
-Generates Visual Studio 15 (VS 2017) project files.
-
-Project Types
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Only Visual C++ and C# projects may be generated. Other types of
-projects (JavaScript, Powershell, Python, etc.) are not supported.
-
-Instance Selection
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-VS 2017 supports multiple installations on the same machine.
-The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE` variable may be set as a
-cache entry containing the absolute path to a Visual Studio instance.
-If the value is not specified explicitly by the user or a toolchain file,
-CMake queries the Visual Studio Installer to locate VS instances, chooses
-one, and sets the variable as a cache entry to hold the value persistently.
-
-When CMake first chooses an instance, if the ``VS150COMNTOOLS`` environment
-variable is set and points to the ``Common7/Tools`` directory within
-one of the instances, that instance will be used. Otherwise, if more
-than one instance is installed we do not define which one is chosen
-by default.
-
-Platform Selection
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The default target platform name (architecture) is ``Win32``.
-
-The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set, perhaps
-via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-A`` option, to specify a target platform
-name (architecture). For example:
-
-* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" -A Win32``
-* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" -A x64``
-* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" -A ARM``
-* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" -A ARM64``
-
-For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify
-a target platform name optionally at the end of the generator name.
-This is supported only for:
-
-``Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64``
- Specify target platform ``x64``.
-
-``Visual Studio 15 2017 ARM``
- Specify target platform ``ARM``.
-
-Toolset Selection
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The ``v141`` toolset that comes with Visual Studio 15 2017 is selected by
-default. The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` option may be set, perhaps
-via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-T`` option, to specify another toolset.
-
-.. |VS_TOOLSET_HOST_ARCH_DEFAULT| replace::
- By default this generator uses the 32-bit variant even on a 64-bit host.
