/ms_union switch

The /ms_union switch controls the NDR alignment of nonencapsulated unions.

Note

This attribute is provided for backwards compatibility. It is not recommended for use in a new interface.

 

midl /ms_union

Switch Options

This switch has no parameters.

Remarks

The MIDL compiler mirrors the behavior of the OSF-DCE IDL compiler for nonencapsulated unions. However, because earlier versions of the MIDL compiler did not do so, the /ms_union switch provides compatibility with interfaces built on previous versions of the MIDL compiler.

The ms_union feature can be used as a command-line switch (/ms_union), an IDL interface attribute, or as an IDL-type attribute.

Examples

midl /ms_union file.idl
