Re: Any pointer to Byte Alignment & Structure Padding?

["Amit Dang" <amit_dang@intersolutions.stpn.soft.net>]

I just check /Zp by default is set to 8 not 4 ( which i read some where).
Moreover all libraries are also compiled with /Zp8. Changing it to some
other value raises a warning "compiler option 'structure packing (/Zp)'
inconsistent with precompiled header; current command-line option ignored".

Amit Dang
