/MACHINE

Syntax:

/MACHINE:{IX86|IA64}

Specifies the target platform for the program (for Visual Fortran, specify either IX86 or IA64).

Usually, you do not need to specify the /MACHINE option. LINK infers the machine type from the .OBJ files. However, in some circumstances LINK cannot determine the machine type and issues a linker tools error LNK1113. If such an error occurs, specify /MACHINE.
