C4077 unkown check_stack option
An unknown option was given with the old form of the
'check_stack' pragma, as in the following example:
#pragma check_stack yes
In the old form of the check_stack pragma, the argument
to the argument to the pragma must be empty, +, or -. (1)
The following is an example of using the check_stack pragma:
syntax Compiled with /Gs Action
(Pointer Check)
#pragma check_stack() yes Turns off Stack checking
for routines that follow.
#pragma check_stack() no Turns on Stack checking
for routines that follow.
#pragma check_stack(on) yes or no Turns on Stack checking
for routines that follow.
#pragma check_stack(off) yes or no Turns off Stack checking
for routines that follow.
Note: for earlier versions of Microsoft C, the check_stack pragma had
a different format. check_stack+ was to enable stack checking and
check_stack- was to disable stack checking. Although the Microsoft
Optimizing compiler still accepts this format, its use is discouraged
because it may not be supported in future versions.
