Yeah, I forgot to type the 'c'.  My mistake.

No. The comand I pasted reads

"cmake -A x64 -DBOOST_ROOT:PATH=D:\boost.win"
^^^ cmake not make


> Speaking of x64 vs. x86, I think CMake needs to be able to include the option to build for either x86 or x64 in the same VS project file.  I read on the CMake forums that this is being worked on, but what's the story on that?

Sorry, no idea what you talking about. Perhaps it's better to read the
docs first:

-A <platform-name>
Specify platform name if supported by generator.


For this paricular VS use case, I could have used

cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" -DBOOST_ROOT:PATH=D:\boost.win ..
which should be equivalent to
cmake -A x64 -DBOOST_ROOT:PATH=D:\boost.win
