# vcpkg_build_msbuild

Build a msbuild-based project. Deprecated in favor of `vcpkg_install_msbuild()`.

## Usage
```cmake
vcpkg_build_msbuild(
    PROJECT_PATH <${SOURCE_PATH}/port.sln>
    [RELEASE_CONFIGURATION <Release>]
    [DEBUG_CONFIGURATION <Debug>]
    [TARGET <Build>]
    [TARGET_PLATFORM_VERSION <10.0.15063.0>]
    [PLATFORM <${TRIPLET_SYSTEM_ARCH}>]
    [PLATFORM_TOOLSET <${VCPKG_PLATFORM_TOOLSET}>]
    [OPTIONS </p:ZLIB_INCLUDE_PATH=X>...]
    [OPTIONS_RELEASE </p:ZLIB_LIB=X>...]
    [OPTIONS_DEBUG </p:ZLIB_LIB=X>...]
    [USE_VCPKG_INTEGRATION]
)
```

## Parameters
### USE_VCPKG_INTEGRATION

### PLATFORM
The platform (``/p:Platform`` msbuild parameter) used for the build.

### PLATFORM_TOOLSET
The platform toolset (``/p:PlatformToolset`` msbuild parameter) used for the build.

### OPTIONS
Additional options passed to msbuild for all builds.
