more verbose linker output to show symbols

Question

When adding the /VERBOSE:lib flag it is supposed to show "The displayed information includes the library search process and lists each library and object name (with full path), the symbol being resolved from the library, and a list of objects that reference the symbol."

I can't seem to get VS2012 do this. It just shows the .lib's searched, not the symbol being resolved

What would be causing the full output not to show?

Answer 1

Adding /VERBOSE along with /VERBOSE:LIB generates much more detailed output.
