10.1.4.1   Converting to Visual Studio

The CMake project can easily be converted to a Visual Studio project via the Generate option. The following example generates a project for Visual Studio 2015 (64-bit), but other generators are available as well.

• Open a command prompt
• Change to the exported project directory (containing CMakeLists.txt).
• Generate the Visual Studio project:

    cmake . -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64"
  

Run cmake -G to get a list of available generators.
