Thanx

Hi,
I know what this warning means, I just want to disable it. (Not prevent). I
can't find command line argument to disable specific LINKER warnings

As far as I know there is no general mechanism for disabling linker warnings.
The only thing you can do is to prevent them, for example by using /Zi or
/NODEFAULTLIB if appropriate.

I don't know if this will work or not...

Try adding the following to your linker options.

/IGNORE:4204

Hi,
You can give it a try, but according to this, it should not work. that
switch is not valid anymore:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;103717

I just did the following test: building an exe with a missing symbol. this
is only possible by using /FORCE. This will force the linker to output the
exe, but with warning LNK4088.

I was not able to suppres this warning with /IGNORE.
on the other hand, if you specify an unknown switch like /BLABLA it will be
printed in the output window with the message
LINK : warning LNK4044: unrecognized option '/BLABLA'; ignored

So one one hand the /IGNORE switch seems to be ignored, but on the other
hand it is still recognized as a known linker switch.
Perhaps one of the MVP's can dig up some more info?
