Optimize the building in msvc 2008

Do you have a typical platform dependent issue you're battling with ? Ask it here. Make sure you mention your platform, compiler, and wxWidgets version.

Optimize the building in msvc 2008

Post by Joelito »

Hi, sorry if this a non-critical issue but I'm trying new things here. When I build wxWidgets with msvc I noticed that there are more files created:

Code: Select all

*.manifest
*.ilk
*.pdb
*.exp
*.lib
*.dll
I managed to avoid the ilk and manifest, with this:

Code: Select all

nmake -f makefile.vc UNICODE=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=0 BUILD=release CPPFLAGS="/MT" LDFLAGS="/MANIFEST:NO /INCREMENTAL:NO"
Question, how can I avoid the exp file creation? Another question is...does it must create the pdb file, too? ASking this because in gcc there are no extra files created.
Thanks for the info.
