In Visual Studio 2017 and earlier, if
CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM
was not specified, the build defaulted to 32-bit, hence_ARCH
was to set tox86
ifCMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM
was not set with MSVC. However, since Visual Studio 2019 ifCMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM
is not specified, the build defaults to 64-bit, see https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/generator/Visual%20Studio%2016%202019.html .This patch ensure that 64-bit is correctly used for builds using Visual Studio 2019 and greater.
