/PLUS_LIST_OPTIMIZE /NOPLUS_LIST_OPTIMIZE (D) Provides improved optimization and code generation across file boundaries that would not be available if the files were compiled seperately. When you specify /PLUS_LIST_OPTIMIZE on the command line in conjunction with a series of file specifications separated by plus signs, the compiler does not concatenate each of the specified source files together. Instead, each file is treated separately for purposes of parsing, except that the compiler will issue diagnostics about conflicting external declarations and function definitions that occur in different files. For purposes of code generation, the compiler treats the files as one application. The default is /NOPLUS_LIST_OPTIMIZE.
