Sending your C++ sultion/project files in a ZIP files

  • Article

Before creating the ZIP file and for example, attaching it to an e-mail and send it to a friend, you might want to considerably reduce its size (the ZIP file, not the friend) by doing:

del /s *.pch *.pdb *.ncb *.sbr *.obj *.idb *.ilk

Al those are product of the built so no need to fill your friend Inbox...

I did not include the *.EXE or *.DLL as those could be dependencies.
