I'm currently using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.
If we say that we give 10 different people a copy of MSVC 10 and a short C++ Hello, World listing. They all create a new project using exactly the same settings, add a new cpp file with the Hello, World program and compile it.
- Do they all get the exactly same binary?
- If not, what are the exact differences?
- What information about my system does MSVC add to my executeable?
Paranoia!
