CMake Error: Could not create named generator Visual Studio 15 2012

[AM_9977001]

Hello

When I run the "$ cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2012" .. in the ubuntu terminal, I got an error of "CMake Error: Could no create named generator Visual Stuido".

Can you tell me how to solve this error? 

If the error is due to not being installed Visual Studio 15 2012 in ubuntu, how to install the visual studio 15 2012 in ubuntu?

Thank you.
