/nostdlib (C# Compiler Options)
Visual Studio 2012
/nostdlib prevents the import of mscorlib.dll, which defines the entire System namespace.
/nostdlib[+ | -]
Use this option if you want to define or create your own System namespace and objects.
If you do not specify /nostdlib, mscorlib.dll will be imported into your program (same as specifying /nostdlib-). Specifying /nostdlib is the same as specifying /nostdlib+.
