Understanding Build Platforms

Build platforms provide a way to store multiple versions of solution and project properties that apply speciffically to target platforms. For example you can create a Debug configuration that targets an x86 platform, and a Debug configuration that targets an x64 platform. The active platform can be quickly accessed and changed, allowing you to easily build a project targeting multiple platforms.
