/VERBOSE

Syntax:

/VERBOSE[:LIB]

The linker sends information about the progress of the linking session to the Output window. If specified on the command line, the information is sent to standard output and can be redirected to a file.

The displayed information includes the library search process and lists each library and object name (with full path), the symbol being resolved from the library, and the list of objects that reference the symbol.

Adding :LIB to the /VERBOSE option restricts progress messages to those indicating the libraries searched.

You can select this option in the Microsoft visual development environment by filling in the Print Progress Messages box in the Customize category of the Link tab of the Project Settings dialog box.
