exe Size

(1/1)

TyDX:
Hi guys.

I've compiled a very simple C++ program. 35 lines of code in both Code::Blocks and VS 2010.

The exe generated by Visual Studio is 85Kb and the one generated by CB is 945Kb.

Both IDEs using default settings.

Anything I need to set in Code::Blocks to reduce the exe size?

Thanks in advance.

Ty.

The setting depends on the Compiler used.
