In #8 we tried to convince CMake to build the SDK with various generators and toolsets. Could you please check if the configuration still works without those additional parameters (-T, -G) and we still get the desired SDK for the desired VisualStudio+toolset or if the README.md needs to be updated?

Ran in the 2010 command pompt. It defaulted to 2015 with no extra parameters beyond what's in the readme. Result built seemingly fine.

Thanks for the feedback.

Ran in the 2010 command pompt.

I checked if this is required. Doesn't seem to be the case. The build works as long as cmake is on the PATH. So the documentation is up to date.

My point re: 2010 was that I generated the 2015 SDK within something other than the 2015 command prompt. My default cmd.exe shortcut goes to the 2010 version.
