Setting up Visual Studio 2008 for ANSI Compliance

steals10304 · 03-14-2010, 11:56 AM

Apologies if this in the wrong forum. Can any one tell me how to turn off the Microsoft non-standard extensions to create an ANSI standard project?

Thanks!

Project -> Properties -> C/C++ -> Language -> Disable Language Extensions

Also, under General set the warning level to at least /W3. (/W4 is what I normally use, but I have heard that sometimes it gives spurious warnings.)
