So I tried using "-DCMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET=x64" while configuring a clean 
build directory but it still picked up the x86 compiler. I ended up going into 
the "Settings" of Windows 10 and added the environment variable 
PreferredToolArchitecture=x64 to my account. Logged out, Logged back in and 
then did another configuration run and now during the cmake configuration run 
the proper 64 bit compiler is picked up and used. Still probably missing 
something obvious in the CMake file that I can add....

    Isn't host=x64 for that purpose?
