C++ / CLI - Change all files to UNMANAGED by default

Question

Does anyone know how to change the default behavior of the /clr switch to make all files unmanaged by default? The default behavior of the switch is to make all files managed. I know I can mark each .cpp file individually, but there are ALOT of them...

Answer 1

I ended up leaving the switch OFF in the project properties and then tried turning it on only for those .cpp files that needed it, this worked once I fixed the incompatible options like /RTC1 and /Gm, etc.

Answer 2

From what I can see, no there is no way of, by default, setting each .cpp file to native inside of VS or on the command line. You'll have to do it manually in the IDE (or script something that modifies the proj file).
