/V (Version Number)
Embeds a text string ** in the .obj file. Deprecated.
/Vstring
Arguments
- string
A string specifying the version number or copyright notice to be embedded in an .obj file.
Remarks
The string ** can label an .obj file with a version number or a copyright notice. Any space or tab characters must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") if they are a part of the string. A backslash (\) must precede any double quotation marks if they are a part of the string. A space between /V and string is optional.
You can also use comment (C/C++) with the compiler comment-type argument to place the name and version number of the compiler in the .obj file.
/V is deprecated in Visual C++ 2005; /V was primarily used to support building virtual device drivers (VxDs), and building VxDs is no longer supported by the Visual C++ toolset. For more information, see Deprecated Compiler Options.
