c++ - Disabling precompiled headers for a specific file in a VC++ 2010 project

Question

As the title says. I have a C++ project, and added 1 C .h file and a C .c source file, but they are having problems because the rest of the project uses a precompiled header, but if I try to include it in those C files, it gives an error. I can't just disable precompiled headers for the whole project, because it's part of a larger project that uses it and has code by somebody else.

So is there a way to select those two C files (the .h header and .c source files) and disable PCH?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Highlight the file in the Solution Explorer and hit Alt+F7. This will bring up the properties for the file; in the "C/C++" section under "Precompiled Headers" you'll find the relevant options. You don't need to worry about the .h files.
