+'-b' flag in the command above builds each generated solutions in both 'Debug' and 'Release' configurations. It also builds the predefined 'INSTALL' project within generated solutions. Building it creates a separate install location that accumulates binaries and includes for specified platforms. Default location is ```<ocv-src>\bin\install\```.
+
+WinRT samples reference 'install' binaries and include files via ```OPENCV_WINRT_INSTALL_DIR``` environment variable. Please declare it and point to ```<ocv-src>\bin\install\``` directory (note slash at the end) to resolve references within sample applications.

+If you don't want to build all configurations automatically, you can omit ```-b``` flag and build OpenCV.sln for the particular platform you are targeting manually. Due to the current limitations of CMake, separate x86/x64/ARM projects must be generated for each platform.
