Hello

I have created a DLL in Release Configuration. When I opened the DLL in hex editor I noticed that path string with full path, where my linked DLL is located, can be found inside DLL
My question is: Is there a way (may be some option key) not to include any path information into a final DLL

Thank you in advance
WBR
Dmitri

That path is inserted into the binary if you link with /PDB; don't make a
PDB, you won't get the path.
