/TLBOUT (Name .TLB File)
Visual Studio .NET 2003
/TLBOUT:[path\]filename
where:
- path
- An absolute or relative path specification for where the .tlb file should be created.
- filename
- Specifies the name of the .tlb file created by the MIDL compiler. No file extension is assumed; specify filename.tlb if you want a .tlb extension.
Remarks
The /TLBOUT option specifies the name and extension of the .tlb file.
The MIDL compiler is called by the Visual C++ linker when linking projects that have the module attribute.
If /TLBOUT is not specified, the .tlb file will get its name from /IDLOUT filename. If /IDLOUT is not specified, the .tlb file will be called vc70.tlb.
