Which is equivalent to __OPTIMIZE__ in visual studio

Question

In GCC, we have a macro __OPTIMIZE__defined when the compiler is configured to optimize the code. Is there an equivalent macro in Visual Studio?

Answer 1

In its decision, right-click your project and select: Properties. Now you see the project properties window. Select the drop-down menu with the name: C/C++. Should be submenus Optimizations. I just checked both 2010 and 2013, all this is in place. There you can choose which specific optimizations you want.
