 clang-cl can also be used from inside Visual Studio by selecting the LLVM

+Platform Toolset. The toolset is not part of the installer, but may be installed
+separately from the
+`Visual Studio Marketplace <https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=LLVMExtensions.llvm-toolchain>`_.
+To use the toolset, select a project in Solution Explorer, open its Property
+Page (Alt+F7), and in the "General" section of "Configuration Properties"
+change "Platform Toolset" to LLVM.  Doing so enables an additional Property
+Page for selecting the clang-cl executable to use for builds.
 
 To use the toolset with MSBuild directly, invoke it with e.g.
-``/p:PlatformToolset=LLVM-vs2014``. This allows trying out the clang-cl
-toolchain without modifying your project files.
+``/p:PlatformToolset=LLVM``. This allows trying out the clang-cl toolchain
+without modifying your project files.
 
 It's also possible to point MSBuild at clang-cl without changing toolset by
 passing ``/p:CLToolPath=c:\llvm\bin /p:CLToolExe=clang-cl.exe``.
 
 When using CMake and the Visual Studio generators, the toolset can be set with the ``-T`` flag:
 
   ::
 
-    cmake -G"Visual Studio 15 2017" -T LLVM-vs2014 ..
+    cmake -G"Visual Studio 15 2017" -T LLVM ..
 
 When using CMake with the Ninja generator, set the ``CMAKE_C_COMPILER`` and
 ``CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER`` variables to clang-cl:
