+CMAKE_VS_PLATFORM_TOOLSET_HOST_ARCHITECTURE
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Visual Studio preferred tool architecture.
+
+The :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2013 and above support optional
+selection of a 64-bit toolchain on 64-bit hosts by specifying a ``host=x64``
+value in the :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` option. CMake provides
+the selected toolchain architecture preference in this variable (either
+``x64`` or empty).
