Summary:

In Microsoft C versions 5.0, 5.10, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0ax, C/C++ version

7.0, and Microsoft QuickC versions 2.0, 2.01, 2.5, and 2.51, the C and

QuickC compiler switches must be specified on the command line, before

any source files that the option is intended to apply to. In most

cases, specifying options at the end of the command line after a

filename will NOT generate any warnings or errors--the compiler will

ignore the options because there are no following source files that

the options apply to.

In a few cases, a trailing option at the end of the command-line will

generate an error if the option conflicts with a previously specified

option.
