I am using CMake 2.8.10.1 to generate project files for Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate (64-bit). The resulting solution contains a library, some tests, and some executables.

I would like to profile some of the applications. When I select “ANALYZE” -> “Start Performance Analysis,” I encounter the error message “No launchable projects are available for profiling.” How can I profile my solution generated by CMake?

    It seems I’ve found a way to fix it. You need to add win32 configuration under your project. Then profiler will see your project as launchable.
    For example, for the release configuration you should add the following 

    <ProjectConfiguration Include="Release|Win32">
      <Configuration>Release</Configuration>
      <Platform>Win32</Platform>
</ProjectConfiguration>

    under

    <ItemGroup Label="ProjectConfigurations">

    Using the menu:

    • Build -> Configuration Manager
    • Goto row of the project to profile
    • In the platform column note that it will only have a x64 entry
    • Use dropdown <New...> and select Win32 for New platform:
