Correct. Furthermore it is supported only for VS >= 10. > I was thinking of a case in the future where > Eclipse CDT4 or Code Blocks may support toolsets.

No. Extra generators only ever work in conjunction with a normal generator like Unix Makefiles. The main generator determines the toolchain. The "extra" generators just write out information for an IDE to browse the sources of the targets. The only "build" operation these generators have is that the IDEs may offer a button to run "make" to drive the main generator's build rules. -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
