+Visual Studio 11 2012
+---------------------
+
+Generates Visual Studio 11 (VS 2012) project files.
+
+The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set
+to specify a target platform name (architecture).
+
+For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify
+a target platform name optionally at the end of this generator name:
+
+``Visual Studio 11 2012 Win64``
+ Specify target platform ``x64``.
+
+``Visual Studio 11 2012 ARM``
+ Specify target platform ``ARM``.
+
+``Visual Studio 11 2012 <WinCE-SDK>``
+ Specify target platform matching a Windows CE SDK name.
+
+For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.0, one may specify this
+generator using the name "Visual Studio 11" without the year component.
+
+Toolset Selection
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The ``v110`` toolset that comes with Visual Studio 11 2012 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.
