Hi David, Alexey I'm glad to hear your enthusiasm about our involvement with CMake. We're still trying to understand the issues that people are facing and how we can help improve those. The multi-platform support is something somewhat experimental that will have issues, but getting feedback will help address the issues that you might run into.
Alexey, the issue with CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR seems to come from the CMakeDetermineSystem.cmake (lines 110 and below) file which only sets it for WINCE based on the MSVC_C_ARCHITECTURE_ID and uses the HOST processor otherwise. That's probably why you're seeing AMD64 all the time. My initial thought is that using MSVC_C_ARCHITECTURE_ID should give you at least the right processor for the compile. BTW, I've only enabled the multiplatform support for cross-compiling for Windows Phone and Windows Store apps (to reduce the potential regressions) but if you would like to have it for native Windows apps, I should be able to easily enable it. Looking forward to being able to help more.

That's the point of a multi-configuration, multi-architecture Visual Studio solution: you defer choosing the configuration *and* the architecture until build time. No "CMake time" decisions are possible based on the configuration or the architecture with this approach because neither is known until compile time. It is inappropriate to "choose the configuration or architecture" in CMake code with this approach, and you should re-think about it and see if you can make compile time decisions instead, possibly with #ifdef sections in your C/C++ code... Rather than re-organize your libraries, you could easily just use "win32/libs/$(Platform)" as your value when using the VS generators, and this should work. By the way, Gilles, I echo the sentiment: nice work! I wish MS had gotten involved in CMake even earlier... but welcome!
