title: static library maximum file size generated by Visual Studio or other limitations?
body: <p>are there some limitations under Visual Studio (2008, 2010, ...), in particular for C++ big projects ?</p>
  
  <p>I think of limitations like :<br>
  - a maximum number of files for a project to be compiled / linked<br>
  - a maximum .lib file size that can be generated</p>
  
  <p>We are working with quite big projects, so we would like to prevent any futur problem.
  For example we already had problem with too big .obj files, that we managed to correct thanks to the Visual Studio /bigobj flag.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
